Installation of nfs-utils
Before you compile the program, you need to be sure the "nobody"
user and "nogroup" group are available. You can add these with the
following commands:
groupadd -g 65534 nogroup &&
useradd -c nobody -d /home -g nogroup -s /bin/bash -u 65534 nobody
Install nfs-utils by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make &&
make install
If your /usr directory is NFS mounted,
you should install the executables in /sbin by passing
an additional parameter --sbindir=/sbin to the above
./configure command.
