Description Steve Dickson 2011-06-21 19:49:46 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #711595 +++

It's possible to restrict exports to specific IPv6 addresses or subnets, but the exports(5) manpage is still IPv4 only. Add some verbiage about how to deal with IPV6 addresses in there and maybe add an example or two.

Patch sent to the mailing list and steved. Awaiting feedback...

verified on RHEL6.2-20110816.n.1_nfs-Server with new package updated, compare the manpage with the older.
