Well, I just installed Suse 10 and I was hugely disappointed to see that
the mount command does not support "nfs4" in the vfstype option.
 
Does anyone know if nfs4 will be included in any of the upcoming beta
relases of 10?
 
Thanks,

	I'm interested in using NFSv4 on Suse and would like to know
where I can find more information on the inclusion of NFSv4 on the
upcoming Suse 10 release. The following link is a search in Bugzilla for
NFS in suse 10 but there were no hits.

	I've started some basic testing of NFS using Fedora Core 3 to
simply familiarize myself with new procedures and features involved in
NFSv4 and though NFSv4 will likey be included in Suse 10 in about a
month at it's official release, I think the time spent looking at the
setup details will only further my understanding of it. However, it
would be helpful to see how suse is planning on implimenting it's
inclusion in version 10, which I assume it is, so my learning is as
accurate to the official suse implimentation as possible.
	 
	Also I'm interested in any feedback from users who have
introduced NFSv4 on linux into production. It seems Red Hat introduced
NFSv4 into production in their RHELv4 release. Has anybody had an issues
that would suggest the inclusion was premature especially in light of
the NFSv4 websites below that seem to suggest that the linux
implimentation is not yet completely finished?
	 
	Thanks,
