https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=262341 Summary: mountd steals port Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Please see my rant at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/24/258 (I just hit this problem again today). The replies share one common answer: it's not a kernel problem, and I could not disagree. But, we need to address this. Hence this RFE for openSUSE. Trond wrote:
2) Then assign a bloody port number to mountd, and stick to it. Why do you think there is a '-p' command line option in the first place?
openSUSE actually has a MOUNTD_PORT entry in /etc/sysconfig/nfs (thankfully!) and I say we should set something there to make mountd *not* take up port 631. And please make someone aware of https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4350 Thank you. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
