Is there really a problem with these messages being printed to the log? If you're sat at your console with nothing responding how are you going to see the log messages? The "ticket expired" messages are rate limited. The "Error: state manager failed on NFSv4 server" messages are not rate limited, but if you use my "rpc.gssd -e" hack they'll be written to the log every 5 seconds all night long. -- 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
