Synopsis: [PATCH] NFS replies with incorrect source IP Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->dillon Responsible-Changed-By: dillon Responsible-Changed-When: Mon Nov 8 10:53:12 PST 1999 Responsible-Changed-Why: I'm working on a solution to the problem. Having nfsd simply bind itself to every possible interface ip will blow up installations that make heavy use of IP aliases. All we really need to do is add an option to nfsd to allow it to bind to a specific IP. If a sysop wishes to bind to multiple IPs the sysop can simply run several nfsd's. It would be very rare for a sysop to want to bind to all interface IPs since the situation where this problem tends to come up the most is where you want to bind NFS to one interface but not another, and protect it with ipfw. I will do a separate commit right now on the bug fixes submitted by the PR. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
