Hi Christoph,

Well, all NFS environments (including v2 and v3) automatically create a
basic set of files in the nfs/clnt* subdirectory, but beware of
generalising that file behaviour since the open(), read(), write() and
close() are directly hooked by the objects you are exporting (krb5, and
idmap).

Could you be a bit more specific about what kind of API changes you are
proposing?

Cheers,
  Trond
