Is this the reason why my RedHat 6.0 system accepts NFS when run with the 2.2.5-22 kernel, but not when I compile 2.2.10 and run under that? If so, then...
1. I'm a "me too" as well.
2. What can I do to get it working until such time as the patches in question do go into the stock kernel?
Best wishes from Riley.
