I got 2 responses to that question, and here, in summary, are the very
satisfying answers:

}>Does the old "change nobody to 0" kernel patch still work?
}
}Yes, it is now called '-anon=0' as in (/etc/exports):
}
}/usr	-anon=0,access=fwiprg
}/kim1	-anon=0,access=fwiprg
}/kim2	-anon=0,access=fwiprg


}The option you want is called -anon=0
}In Sunos 4.1 the magic limit on the -root= option is incrased to 255
}machines.
}It don't see why ranges or subnets can't be implemented.
}(They arent)
