How is nfs and nmount working these days? Should I try to use nmount to control various tunables? Or should I make a sysctl tree per-mount and have users do that? I'd _really_ like to be able to see the mount options via just running "mount" like so: /usr/src/sbin/mount % mount /dev/ad0s1a on / (ufs, local) devfs on /dev (devfs, local) /dev/ad0s1d on /usr (ufs, local) mac:/Users/parallels on /vol/mac (nfs,nofsyncclose,negativecache=200) Note: nofsyncclose and negativecache=200 are two options I want to add. What do you guys think? Is nmount up for this? Any pointers to using nmount? Or should I sysctl? -- - Alfred Perlstein
