Hi, There seems to be a limit on the length of mounts, which is apparently 80 characters on i386 machines (and even only 64 characters on alpha machines). However, I need to be able to use NFS mounts that are longer than that. What do I have to do to increase that limit? I've searched the list archives, but haven't found a useful answer. I've also tried to change the MNAMELEN value in sys/mount.h and recompile the system, but got panics right from the start. So I guess my attempt was probably a bit naive, and I forgot something important. Any assistance would be very welcome -- thanks in advance!
