Even more annoyingly, the RCng nfsd script ignores arguments specified
in /etc/rc.conf. See the example below, where "nfsd" is my patched
script, "nfsd.old" is what is in CVS now. Patch appended.
% grep nfs /etc/rc.conf
nfs_server_enable="YES"
nfs_server_flags="-u -t -n 8 -h 172.31.193.10 -h 172.31.193.1"
% ./nfsd.old stop
nfsd not running?
% sudo ./nfsd.old start
Starting nfsd.
% ps ax | grep nfsd | wc -l
5
%sudo ./nfsd.old stop
Stopping nfsd.
kill: 2903: No such process
kill: 2905: No such process
<4:33pm>whisper/gallatin:rc.d>ps ax | grep nfsd | wc -l
0
% sudo ./nfsd start
Starting nfsd.
% ps ax | grep nfsd | wc -l
9
%
Note that the default script ignores the arguments -n 8 and starts
only 4 nfsds.
Can this be fixed, please?
Thanks,
Drew
