[Sunhelp] NFS mount permissions

Umm, you shouldn't edit /etc/dfs/sharetab, its just the file the system
uses to keep track of which systems that are currently shared.

You should edit /etc/dfs/dfstab instead, and when you have done so you can
run the command shareall (/usr/sbin/shareall), or if the system didn't had
any shared filesystems earlier you should run /etc/init.d/nfs.server start

Hope it answers your question.
