You said before that there is server code to handle old 2.2 cookies but I've heard otherwise from posts on the list and 2.2 works too well for us right now to risk this. I really should get around to testing this though. Truth is, 2.2 works well for our needs, I don't really care to upgrade until we get something worthwhile like RPCSEC and ACL support. your patches affect client only though right? Our servers are running 2.2.18pre19 with UDP rsize fix since forever, with no problems whatever. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ NFS maillist - NFS@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nfs
