So actually I guess there is another bug here, which is a subset of http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues#Callback_error_handling The server should be setting the appropriate sequence flag when it (rightly or wrongly) things that a cb reply is garbage (not sure which flag off the top of my head), and pynfs should be insisting that the flag be set on any further sequence flags. --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
