there is no mount or nfs group
but you can create one
you need two things: user must be able to edit /etc/exports, change group from exports to mount, and rw flag for group
then set the root sticky bit on the binary /usr/sbin/exportfs, give it to the group "mount", and remove the rights for others
now every user in the mount group must be able to export filesystems, or am I missing something?

We have 2 servers in cluster. Node1 has an ext3 mount for backups and the other connects using NFS to this node1.
I believe the reason it is configured in this manner is to not duplicate backups since this is a Database server. Not sure this was the reason though. Right now if node1 goes down all... (5 Replies)

QUOTA(1) BSD General Commands Manual QUOTA(1)
NAME
quota -- display disk usage and limits
SYNOPSIS
quota [-g] [-u] [-v | -q]
quota [-u] [-v | -q] user
quota [-g] [-v | -q] group
DESCRIPTION
Quota displays users' disk usage and limits. By default only the user quotas are printed.
Options:
-g Print group quotas for the group of which the user is a member. The optional -u flag is equivalent to the default.
-v quota will display quotas on filesystems where no storage is allocated.
-q Print a more terse message, containing only information on filesystems where usage is over quota.
Specifying both -g and -u displays both the user quotas and the group quotas (for the user).
Only the super-user may use the -u flag and the optional user argument to view the limits of other users. Non-super-users can use the -g
flag and optional group argument to view only the limits of groups of which they are members.
The -q flag takes precedence over the -v flag.
Quota reports the quotas of all the filesystems that have a mount option file located at its root. If quota exits with a non-zero status,
then one or more filesystems are over quota.
FILES
Each of the following quota files is located at the root of the mounted filesystem. The mount option files are empty files whose existence
indicates that quotas are to be enabled for that filesystem.
.quota.user data file containing user quotas
.quota.group data file containing group quotas
.quota.ops.user mount option file used to enable user quotas
.quota.ops.group mount option file used to enable group quotas
HISTORY
The quota command appeared in 4.2BSD.
