Uninstall nfs-utils Package
Description
The nfs-utils package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo yum erase nfs-utils
Rationale
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 which are mounted on
that host.
Shell script
The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.
# CAUTION: This remediation script will remove nfs-utils
# from the system, and may remove any packages
# that depend on nfs-utils. Execute this
# remediation AFTER testing on a non-production
# system!
if rpm -q --quiet "nfs-utils" ; then
yum remove -y "nfs-utils"
