Hi. Here is a patch to modify the NFS server to register the NFS_ACL services with the rpcbind daemon. This allows the client to ping for the existence of the NFS_ACL support via commands such as "rpcinfo -t <server> nfs_acl". This patch also modifies the NFS_ACL support so that responses to version 2 NULLPROC requests can be made. The changelog for the patch which turned off this functionality mentioned something about not registering the NFS_ACL as being part of some tradition. I can't find this tradition and the only other implementation which supports NFS_ACL does register them with the rpcbind daemon.
