What is the definition of "recently introduced" here? What is the exact commit that introduced the bug in nfs-utils? The problem is that we're changing the client, and if it turns out that every damned Linux server that was installed out there in the past 2 years displays this bug, then Linus will call 'regression' on us and revert the code.

The Linux client and server have well defined behaviors in that they always will default to AUTH_SYS. It may not be standard compliant, but everyone and their dog knows it. Newer servers will not hand out empty lists, and why cause yourself grief by not handling older servers? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
