Hi,=0A=
=0A=
The FreeBSD NFS server is broken when handling multiple=0A=
connections for NFSv4.1/4.2.=0A=
It incorrectly binds the back channel to a new connection=0A=
when is sees an RPC with Sequence in it (almost all RPCs)=0A=
and might send a callback on the wrong connection.=0A=
=0A=
I have a fix, but it won't be in a release until 12.3/13.1.=0A=
It can be found in Bugzilla PR#254560.=0A=
=0A=
In the meantime, avoid using the "nconnects" option=0A=
on Linux client mounts.=0A=
=0A=
Thanks go to Ben Coddington @redhat for diagnosing=0A=
this and testing the patch.=0A=
=0A=
Sorry about the breakage, rick=0A=
ps: It was done intentionally long ago, when clients=0A=
      did not do BindConnectionToSession and then slipped=0A=
      through the cracks.=0A=
