In the last episode (Jul 08), Incoming Mail List said: > Does FBSD enforce a maximum number of mounted file systems? If so, > is it configurable? I haven't found anyplace that puts a hard limit on it, but you will hit some internal limit eventually. Try running this shell script: #! /bin/sh i=0 mkdir /tmp/test cd /tmp/test while : ; do echo $i mkdir $i mount localhost:/ $i || break i=$((i+1)) done echo Removing mountpoints for i in * ; do echo $i ; umount $i ; rmdir $i ; done At the 377th mount, I got this error: [udp] localhost:/: RPCPROG_MNT: RPC: Authentication error; why = Client credential too weak If I restart mountd with the -n flag to allow use of unprivileged ports, the error just changes: mount_nfs: /tmp/test/0377: Can't assign requested address -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
