Hi All,
So what exactly is the status of NFS and IPv6 in the most recent (say,
2.6.24-28) kernels? Is it present and if so, working? Feel free to
simply point me to a roadmap that shows where we are if you like.
Cheers and thanx,
b.

The NFS client in 2.6.28 (and maybe 2.6.27) should support NFSv4 over IPv6. Use the latest nfs-utils. I'm hoping 2.6.29 will see all the kernel pieces we need for NFSv2/v3 client and server, and NFSv4 server support for IPv6. Support for NFSv2/v3 over IPv6, and server-side support for NFSv4 over IPv6, requires user space changes. We are pushing those into nfs- utils over time, but I don't expect that work to be complete until sometime in 1H2009. -- Chuck Lever chuck[dot]lever[at]oracle[dot]com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
