Hello List!

We do have a solution for this problem now, it seems. A bit of testing
worked fine at least: We just use different yp-maps for solaris and
Linux, and the linux map contains the
"-fstype=nfs4,proto=tcp,port=2049"-Option for the entries on servers
that support it. It seems like a hack, but at least it works.

For this to work, we just have to absolutely make sure that every single
linux machine on the network supports nfs4 ... and I have yet to see a
single one that does this well ;)
