I have no problems with that. But when I NFS Server: mkfifo foo; cat < foo NFS Client: echo "hello world" > foo (over an NFS mount point) the shell hangs on the client trying to open "foo" instead of returning an error. Did I miss something like a mount_nfs option? Thought I'd pick yer brains before digging through the code and sending in a PR. I'm running 4.1.1-RELEASE. -Paul.
