Set CONFIG_NFSD_V4 in the kernel

Post by einar »

Currently, even if the kernel (B2 with 2.4RC1 and I suppose B3, since I don't own one) supports NFS v4 mounts, it cannot serve them because the aforementioned option is not set.
Are there any drawbacks (fatter kernel, perhaps?) or could it be switched on? NFS v4 is much better than version 3.

I'll look into it.
I've added a patch now at https://github.com/Excito/kernel/commit ... f500c4f3a4 which I'll build towards next release which includes nfs4 server support and nfs41 client support (dunno if the latter is useful).

Would this trickle down to post-2.4 b2 users, or b3 only?
