Re: NFS 4.1

The vmware client will not work with the FreeBSD server at this time. It does
a ReclaimComplete with file system boolean set ``true``. This isn`t supported
by the FreeBSD server at this time. (vmware is the only client that does this, as
far as I am know.)

The fix is probably simple, but since I don`t
have access to vmware and those that reported it haven`t been able to give me
the information I need....

If you are willing to test a couple of simple patches for the server in order
to resolve this, email and I`ll send them to you, rick

Thanks for the reply Russell,
I'm looking to set up a 4.1 server in order to host vmware images. I have
set up an exports but I get an error stating NFS 4 is not supported when
trying to attach it in VM storage. Is there any documentation for setting
this up?
Thanks
Mike
