Hi Looking into the NFS code it appears that NFSv4.x implementation does not support referrals using non-default port i-e something other than 2049. NFS server does not support it and client code always uses default 2049 to make a connection regardless of getting it from fs_location attr. Running NFS Ganesha as a server it can provide the correct port number in server opaque data for fs_location but NFS Linux client code appears to always use 2049 hence the referral fails. I can provide the screenshot of the wireshark trace for ganesha server. Question: Is this simply a bug that needs to be fixed and no one asked for it before? or is there any rationale behind this? Thank you -Abdul
