Rob,

I am not using pvfs2tab. I put the following line in /etc/fstab on clients
tcp://d5:3334/pvfs2-fs /pvfs2 pvfs2 default,noauto 0 0

I can mount /pvfs2. Mount command on clients shows
tcp://d5:3334/pvfs2-fs on /pvfs2 type pvfs2 (rw,default)

Should I add a /etc/pvfs2tab on clients to use the Linux kernel?
