From: "Remko Lodder" To: "Clarence CHU" Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, dfr@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: kern/129132: 7.1-Beta2 nfsd cannot lock Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2008 15:59:31 +0100 (CET) On Mon, November 24, 2008 2:27 pm, Clarence CHU wrote: For clarity's sake: I assume you read the manual page and noticed this; -L Do not forward fcntl(2) locks over the wire. All locks will be local and not seen by the server and likewise not seen by other NFS clients. This removes the need to run the rpcbind(8) service and the rpc.statd(8) and rpc.lockd(8) servers on the client. Note that this option will only be honored when performing the initial mount, it will be silently ignored if used while updating the mount options. Which results in the question: do you have rpc.statd and rpc.lockd running on the machine? I copied in Doug Rabson, who did a lot of work on NFS recently and might have more information wrt. Locking etc. (or not, then I was mistaken). thanks for sending the info and taking the time to report this! It's appreciated! -- /"\ Best regards, | remko@FreeBSD.org \ / Remko Lodder | remko@EFnet X http://www.evilcoder.org/ | / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News
