Public bug reported:

The Ubuntu specific guides for NFS settup

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NFSv4Howto

,as the older one, and

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo

point the user to the nfs-common option

NEED_IDMAPD

, which is not incorporated by default in

/etc/default/nfs-common

--------------------------------

Additional:

This is a little bit obfuscating.

--------------------------------

Expected:


It would be clearer to provide this option also in the config file, when the 
guides point to it. Also a short comment about the function and usage would be 
helpfull.

[Or on the other hand to change the guides, but the option by itself
looks usefull.]
