 > NFS in 2.1.5 and 2.1.6 (and, from looking at CVS) 2.2 also) has
 > problems doing the stuff necessary for AMD to do direct mounts.  This
 > makes AMD nearly useless in real-world automount configurations which
 > nearly always have some direct mounted filesystems.

 > It would be a shame if 2.2 would be the third release of FreeBSD to

 > >Fix:
 > I have patches against 2.1.5 and 2.1.6 that fix this.  We are using
 > several FreeBSD machines in very large automount configurations with
 > these patches.  I didn't author these patches, but I do know they
 > work.  I will be glad to send them to the maintainer.
