Hi All,

Unfortunately it looks like I have mounted a NFS v2/3 server. Is'nt the
standard nfs for OpenBSD 4.4 a v4 ? If so how is it I could not mount it
as a V4 on the client but only as a v2 or v3 (i'm not sure which of 2 or
3) ?
Please help me to understand. Is it a good thing to go for NFSv4
instead ?

Thanks

OpenBSD's nfsd(8) is v3 only, though many of the client utils are able to fallback to v2 when working with other servers (cf. mount_nfs(8), showmount(8)).

nfsd(8) has the following in the man page:
 nfsd listens for service requests at the port indicated in the NFS server
 specification; see Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC 1094
 and NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification.

Cheers,

Aaron
