I occasionally see people that expect valid info when running showmount
against a server that may export some or all filesystems via NFSv4.
Let's make it clear that it only works by talking to the remote MNT
service, and that that may not be available from a v4-only server.
Looks good...thanks Jeff!
Looks fine.
I wonder if it'd also be helpful for showmount to detect this case and
say something. E.g. the following (not even compileable, but you get
the idea).
This would be ideal of course.
We've also talked about trying to cobble together an export list by
scanning the root filesystem over NFSv4, but that's likely to be
complicated and wouldn't give all the same results without further
protocol extensions anyway, so I think that idea's dead.
