You asked this back in April :) I pointed you to the places in the FreeBSD kernel you had to change. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2003-April/000592.html It'd be easier if Linux would just follow the NFS spec, though. http://lxr.linux.no/source/include/linux/lockd/xdr.h has the following comment: /* * NLM cookies. Technically they can be 1K, Nobody uses over 8 bytes * however. */ -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
