pynfs and server attributes?

pynfs and server attributes?

[Jeff Garzik]

Is there a pynfs list somewhere?

The pynfs tests for too-long strings, too-long reads and writes do not 
seem to take into account maxname, maxread and maxwrite attributes.

I actually have to _increase_ the python "longname" test variable in 
order for the test to behave properly on my server :)

P.S.  Thanks to all who contributed to pynfs, it's been a great help.

Not that I know of.

The fixed (but easily changeable) "longname" was intentional in order to 
avoid test dependencies on GETATTR, and non-mandatory attributes at that.

Would making the length of longname a command line option be useful?

I'm glad it is useful.

Definitely.  That, and the max-read and max-write attributes.

There is at least one test that issues a WARNING when my server returns 
128k (its max read size) rather than the requested 9000000 count.

I have not investigated that yet, but I was sorta assuming that my 
server was behaving correctly in that case.
