I see text-based mounts, client-side IPv6 RPC and server-side transport switch (of which the first two are already in mainline, and the last seems to be on its way) -- my impression was that these are all important building blocks. I guess nfs-utils will also need some patching, and an IPv6 transport will be needed for plugging into the server side transport switch, but after that? /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
