You just need to do it before starting nfsd. So if it's just a one-off experiment you could /etc/init.d/nfs-server stop echo "+4.1" >/proc/fs/nsfd/versions /etc/init.d/nfs-server start On machines where I was using 4.1 regularly I'd probably at a line to the init script, or to a local init script that ran before it. --b. -- 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
