Anonymous NFS share not working

I was working on one of the problem in which Windows 2008 was configured as NFS server. The requirement was to configure a NFS share where everyone can read and write. We create the share and configure it to allow anonymous access:

We also add the group “Anonymous Logon” and “Everyone” and grant them full control from the security tab of the shared directory:

However, when we try to access the share we were still getting permission denied error. We were able to mount the share but were unable to create / modify / delete any files. Upon troubleshooting we discover that:

Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users is not enabled.

We perform the following steps to resolve the issue.

• Click on Start à  Run and type secpol.msc.

• Expand Security Settings à  Local Policies à  Security Options.

• On the right hand frame double click on the parameter “Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users”.

• Click on Enable à  Apply à OK.

• Reboot the box.
