So, I guess the search results are related to older versions? Here's a snippet from a google search: edit your "/etc/init.d/nfs" file as follows: Comment out line 97 and add the following line (which removes the -N 4.1) echo -n $"Starting NFS daemon: " # For now, turn off the nfs41 support # daemon rpc.nfsd -N 4.1 $RPCNFSDARGS $RPCNFSDCOUNT daemon rpc.nfsd $RPCNFSDARGS $RPCNFSDCOUNT Then, restart your NFS server (service nfs restart) It should then work (mine does) This one site ( http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/using-nfsv4.html) though had a walkthrough, but I still don't get it to work. Any suggestions? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
