Odd that they should > default to that... I dunno if they default to that or we force that. We have had lots of problems with Linux NFS, we export our home directories but they are more or less read only. Maybe things have gotten better but back in the day I could crash the kernel with a bk clone to a NFS directory. We've also had problems with NFS versions, 2 has been stable for us so we tend to use that when we can. If you want me to get a rant about how retarded the various NFS versions are I can go there. The Sun NFS people absolutely positively did not understand what RPC version numbers are for. And they invented them. Sigh. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitkeeper.com
