Issue

NFS mount fails when using netgroup as client match in export policy with below error on client:

mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting nfs-server-name:/mount-point

Export-policy rule includes netgroup and ns-switch configured to use files,ldap and nis for netgroup.
Export policy check access fails:

cdot_vsim_9_8::> check-access -vserver vs1 -volume vol1 -client-ip 10.x.2.x -authentication-method sys -protocol nfs3 -access-type read-write

(vserver export-policy check-access)

Policy Policy Rule

Path Policy Owner Owner Type Index Access

----------------------------- ---------- --------- ---------- ------ ----------

/ default vs1_root volume 1 read

/vol1 policy-name vol1 volume 0 denied

2 entries were displayed.

"netgrpcheck" shows client is not member of netgroup added in export policy rule.

cdot_vsim_9_8::*> getxxbyyy netgrpcheck -node node1 -vserver vs1 -netgroup netgroup1 -clientIP 10.x.2.x -enable-domain-search-flag true -trust-any-source false -show-source true

Client 10.x.2.x is not a member of netgroup netgroup1
