As long as there is word "NFS" in the section which talks about uids/gids,
I'm satisfied. I for example spend long time to bang my head and searching
hours inside google before I realised that the jail naturally is
its own microcosmos.

If my search command would have found word "NFS" somewhere in
the FAQ, that would have helped a lot.

Thanks,
Jari
