Laura, If you can change the name of the principal Salt is using, then your authorisation rules would not require one to deny it any other permissions. The "admin" word isn't required to grant admin type permissions.
For example if you changed it to "saltstack/salt.admin" you'd only require, saltstack/salt.admin admcil */nfs Cheers, Kenny.
