The kernel returns ENEEDAUTH from the nfssvc() call and nfsd does the authentication, passing the results back via nfssvc(). I don't think this code is actually used by anyone so there is a strong possibility that it doesn't work at all. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
