I have a few questions doing NFS mount over TCP in
kernel 2.4.18.

1) Doing a few mount operations, I noticed that
sometimes it uses V3 GETATTR call and sometimes it
uses V2 GETATTR call, how does client ( or server )
decide witch version to use ? Strange enough, in case
it did use V3 GETATTR, the prior GETPORT is V2.. does
this make a difference later on ?

2) In reply to the V2 GETATTR call, server reply to
the client socket (port 800) with ACK, then send
another packet ( with PSH/ACK flags on ) with
requested data to port 799,this causes RST from the
client. Anyone seen this behavior of decrementing dest
port ( client port number ) by one ?

Thanks
Dave
