Re: Vaguely NFS related problem

["Jeff L. Smith" <jeff@atheros.com>]

You are correct.  The only patch I applied was Trond's 
linux-2.4.18-NFS_ALL.dif and that is where the check is.  The actual 
patch was linux-2.4.18-svc_tcp.dif.  I'm not doing NFS-over-TPC, but 
this seems to be biting me anyway.

I plan to upgrade to 2.4.20 as soon as I can take the fileservers down 
long enough, but that will be a few weeks.  But then that begs the 
question, should I apply Trond's 2.4.20 patches?

Thanks,
Jeff
