@Steve Langasek:

The options CANNOT be specified.  *PLEASE* => read my comments early on.
Quote:

"... As per these instructions by SUN, when you issue this command:

/opt/tta_tem/bin/tem startcdm

... to trigger the "client drive mapping" functionality then this script
"/opt/tta_tem/bin/tem" is executed which ultimately triggers the mount
command I give above (I checked via "strace"):

"mount -t nfs -o rw,udp,mountvers=2,port=4242 localhost:/smb /smb"

So this explains why I need above command to work, no matter how strange
and pointless it may look. ... "

My assertion is that this option should not have been touched, damn it!!
This boneheaded changing of options because "nobody should be using
this" is making Debian and Ubuntu *impossible* to use in a professional
environment. One day the option is there ... you upgrade a few packages
and ... *POOOOFFF!* ... option is gone all of a sudden and your
Enterprise Remote Access solution partially stops to work.

Nice one. Seriously. :-(

I can test that.
