Before, the FreeBSD mountd program would only NFS export UFS, cd9660, msdosfs, and NTFS. I have removed that limitation. Now, if a filesystem properly supports the "update" and "export" mount options, then it should be able to export with mountd. For example, I have been able to export XFS (read-only). If people could test out my changes by NFS exporting different filesystems with mountd, and let me know if there are any problems, I would appreciate it. My changes are in FreeBSD-CURRENT only right now. -- Craig Rodrigues rodrigc@crodrigues.org
