NetBSD NFS-over-IPv6 (actually RPC over IPv6) is TI-RPC based, and it was done by NetBSD guys not KAME guys. It is not impossible to support IPv6 NFS without switching to TI-RPC, INRIA IPv6 has the code (IIRC). However, if you try this, there will be a lot of of non-intuitive typecast against library arguments. itojun To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
