>Organization:
none
>Environment:

NFS-Server: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT/i386
NFS-Client: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE/alpha

>Description:

NFS Server wants to export that fs:
/dev/ad0s4g   2482878  2361105   -76857   103%    /usr

NFS client sees:
neutron:/usr/obj         2482878  2361105 18014398509405127     0%    /usr/obj

>How-To-Repeat:

see above

>Fix:

I'm not a NFS-Nerd, but in my eyes there _should_ be a handshake between server
and client _in some way_ and casts to the correct types should be done
then depending on the machine archs of the server and client.

I know that NFS is a standardized protocol, but this _is_ a bug and must be
fixed.
