Yes, but if you use 5.0.1 (and I recommend all the patches on kernel.org as well) then use the "-hosts" map instead, it shouldn't have this problem. Beware that, being new, it has been changed a number of times, the latest change being to drop the exports access control checking. This was the subject of a number of difficulties but in the end it was disabled because there isn't any way to make it work behind a NAT interface (oops and so obvious). If you need to continue using version 4 then you'll need to persuade your platform support people to add a patch to resolve the issue. There will be a 4.1.5 at some point in the future but my focus is very much on version 5.
