Title

RHEL 9 must not have the nfs-utils package installed.

Control

Verify that the nfs-utils package is not installed with the following command: $ dnf list --installed nfs-utils Error: No matching Packages to list If the "nfs-utils" package is installed, this is a finding.

Discussion

"nfs-utils" provides a daemon for the kernel NFS server and related tools. This package also contains the "showmount" program. "showmount" queries the mount daemon on a remote host for information about the Network File System (NFS) server on the remote host. For example, "showmount" can display the clients that are mounted on that host.
