List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Archive: Hi , In mountd man page , it written that rmtab is ornamental and client can contiune to use filesystem even after calling umount for that filesystem. Is there any real use of this rmtab file ? Does mountd use this file to know the clients having access to filesystem ? If yes , isn,t filehandle supplied by client enough to prove that client has access to filesystem. ? thanks, --kiran __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
