NFS v2? possible?
Hi I have a linux server that needs to mount my FBSD server's web volume and the linux server only has v2 support right now (and I cannot make my own kernel since this is a UML kernel distributed as part of a product) and so I would like to run a v2 compatible nfs server on my FBSD server if possible. Can I do this? How? Thanks Chad ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Please enlighten me on what I should read in the nfsd man page. The client needs to request the mount version. Check the Linux man page for `mount`, under the Mount options for nfs section. man nfs(5) is also informative. It looks like the default for Linux NFS clients (at least on a fairly recent RedHat box) is to use version 2. As root, I just did the following on the RedHat client (served by my 4-STABLE NFS server, Athena): # mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=2 athena:/exports/pub test I then tested the results by running mount (results trimmed to only relevant examples ... warning, the lines are long and may wrap): # mount athena:/exports/pub on /nfs/pub type nfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,mountvers=3,hard,intr,nolock,udp,wsize=8192,rsize=8192,addr=192.168.23.3) athena:/exports/pub on /home/tillman/tmp/test type nfs (rw,nfsvers=2,addr=192.168.23.3) The first line is my regular mount of the 'pub' export from Athena. It's NFS version 3 because that's what I have in my /etc/fstab. The second line is my 'test' mount of the same export ... it's NFSv2 because that what I explicitly requested at the command line when running mount manually (as shown above). It's the same nfsd on the server side. I didn't do anything specify to enable NFS version 2, my rc.conf entry says nfs_server_flags=-u -t -n 14 (the 14 is because it's a high-usage NFS server and my testing shows that I consistently peak at around 12-14 nfsd's in use). You just have to have the client request that version. -T -- One day, a student asked a master, Master, there is conflict between the suits and the sysadmins. Which group has the Zen nature, and which group is grieviously disturbing the stillness of the Tao? And the master said nothing, but installed an operating system.
