Re: [PATCH RFC 0/4] Use correct NFSv4.0 callback credential

Hi Chuck,

I'm not convinced that "srchost=" is necessary. I believe that
everything that is needed is suppose to be encoded in the "target="
option.

I thought target just needed to correctly identify the domain for
which authentication is taking place. Then I think more changes should
be in nfs-utils to make sure that we find credentials for that
particular domain instead of going by the gethostbyname() results.
