nfs over tcp for RedHat 8 kernel 2.4.20-20.8

nfs over tcp for RedHat 8 kernel 2.4.20-20.8

[Dwight Marzolf]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to get nfs over tcp working with kernel 2.4.20-20.8smp in 
RedHat8.  In searching the nfs email archives I found someone who had 
asked how to rebuild the redhat 2.4.20-30.9smp kernel to activate tcp 
for nfs.  The instructions were :

$ make mrproper oldconfig
 Edit the config file to turn on NFS over TCP
 $ make bzImage modules

I followed these instructions and the kernel rebuilt without errors.  I 
installed the rebuilt kernel and rebooted the machine into the new 
kernel.  But when I did a rpcinfo -p tcp still was not started for nfs.  
Only udp was started.  Is there something else I have to do once the 
kernel is rebuilt with tcp for nfs turned on in order to actually have 
the service started and visible in the rpcinfo -p command?

thanks,
dwight
