Ok, I just need a sanity check...

I just updated my kernel from 2.6.37-r4 to 3.0.6, and now am unable to mount a remote nfs filesystem (on a QNAP NFS) that has been working fine for years...

I'm getting the following error:

myhost : Sun Dec 11, 12:20:00 : ~
 # /etc/init.d/rpc.idmapd start
 * Starting idmapd ...
* make sure DNOTIFY support is enabled ...
                 [ !! ]
 * ERROR: rpc.idmapd failed to start
myhost : Sun Dec 11, 12:20:03 : ~
 #

what is confusing me is I have never had DNOTIFY support enabled (I only enable INOTIFY), and I simply did a makeoldconfig when upgrqading/compiling the kernel, so why was it working before, but not now?

Do I really have to enable DNOTIFY now? If so, why did it work before?

Thanks...

Charles
