Everything I've read about nfs says that v2 is the default, but I've checked as you described and I'm seeing v3 as you say. Is that a Suse-only thing?
Not that I am aware of, I checked the only other machine I have running a 2.4.x kernel (2.4.20 redhat 9 machine). It too defaults to nfsv3 connections on 4 different servers. I haven't seen a machine default to nfsv2 for the past 4 years or so. You can do two things really, get rid of the servers ability to serve up an NFSv2 connection, which I thought might have been happening on our SANS but I setup a small NFS server to check it out and its still defaulting to v3. This procedure is outlined in the NFS FAQ I link below.
Yes, I'd seen that, but when I looked at how to implement that on a Suse system it seems there's no place to configure it. It would mean hacking the /etc/init.d/nfsserver script unless I've missed something.
Or force v3 on all your clients. I would probably force it all on the clients as it is far more clear to see it in many /etc/fstab's then it is on a single /etc/sysconfig file.
Except it's a lot harder to see one missing option in many fstabs than in a single server config file (but since there isn't an appropriate server config file, that's moot :) Thanks again for your help, Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
