Attachments: Part of my fstab pertaining to nfs4 mounts

Description Marek Szuba archtester gentoo-dev 2008-03-14 13:16:15 UTC 
Hello,

Basically, the summary says it all: although everything suggests nfsmount (from net-fs/nfs-utils-1.1.0-r1) should automatically pull in rpc.idmapd if fstab contains entries with filesystem nfs4, on my system it doesn't. I suspect the awk expression used for that purpose doesn't like my fstab for some reason, unfortunately I don't know awk so I cannot debug the problem myself. For now I have simply added rpc.idmapd to runlevel default, where it starts without problems.

Attached you will find the nfs4 mount lines from my fstab, with altered naming but preserved syntax.
