List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net CMS, your suggestions are very useful and valid. I will incorporate them and provide you with snippets of what needs to be added in the various sections of the howto and leave it to you to modify as required and update the webpage. there was another suggestion that came in the meanwhile. So will incorporate that also and send the snippets as suggested at the earliest. thanx once again. regards chax. >>> "Christopher Smith" 06/12/06 7:03 pm >>> Chax-- Thank you very much for what you have submitted. A few comments: a) Some of the information tin the README is general to Linux, and applies to all 2.6 implementations. b) Some of the information here applies to SuSE specifically. c) The Kerberos configuration section applies to both NFS Version 3 as well as NFS Version 4. What I would suggest is we do the following: * Break out the portions that apply specifically to NFS Version 4 into sections 3 and 4 of the HOWTO for server and client configuration. * Break out the Kerberos documentation you've generated into a subsection of the Security portion of the HOWTO, since it applies to all NFS versions. * Add notation where specific SuSE related configuration is required. Either you or I can do this. Its up to you. Is this acceptable?
