Do you recall what your concern with it was? I like the idea of the patch. Intead of writing a dev_t into procfs it should probably be changed to write a path to a new file in the nfsctl filesystem. In fact couldn't this be treated as a reexport with a NFSEXP_ flag meaning drop all locks to avoid creating new interfaces? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
