         1. Do *not* self-reference an NFS server in its own exports file.
         2. Do not allow the exports file to contain a "localhost" entry.


If a fileystem is exported to a netgroup, and that netgroup includes
the local host (ie the name of the host, not "localhost", then does this
count as self-reference?


Yes. This is precisely the problem.
