After more discussion on IRC, I *think* this might be a peculiarity of having / on nand. On my SheevaPlug, which has / on an MMC card, this works as expected without any manual intervention (IOW, lockd gets assigned to port 4045). On my Netgear Stora (the NFS server) and my GuruPlug, / is ubifs on /dev/mtd2, and both of them show the problem behavior. I don't know if that's related at all, but it's something to explore. However, I must go to bed now, and I'll not be able to do anything with this tomorrow, but at least I have an idea to pursue now... -RW _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
