Check Text ( C-30082r490174_chk )
Perform the following on NFS servers:

# grep "^default" /etc/nfssec.conf

Check to ensure the second column does not equal 0. This would indicate the default is set to none. Perform the following to check currently exported file systems.

# more /etc/dfs/dfstab

If the option sec=none is set on any of the exported file systems, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-30070r490175_fix)
Edit the /etc/dfs/dfstab file and add the sec=XXX option to the share line as an option. XXX must be a valid option for the system other than none.
