Hi,

I have a mix off 2.x releases here and run a couple of solaris boxes also
and I find only one problem with the NFS client implementation on FreeBSD
that makes me wonder who is right. Namely the functions hard and actimeo
seem to be missing plus you need to add a termcap entry on the solaris
boxes to work with FreeBSD correctly but I've seen no major problems
besides that.

Michael
