I believe the last time this came up, i asked for a rationale or explanation. The only reason given [0] was from J. Bruce Fields: >> The main problem with the fsid=0 trick is that your v3 and v4 clients >> end up with different paths. So, if you have no v3 clients, i don't think there is any reason to avoid fsid=0 if it makes things cleaner for you. And removing fsid=0 will require you to change /etc/fstab (or your automounter config) in all of your clients. --dkg [0] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/46932/focus=46944 -- 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
