[arch-dev-public] [signoff] nfs-utils 1.2.0-1
Hi guys, Based on nfs-utils from AUR we could support nfs4 rather easily. Major changes: - daemon scripts changed, nfslock and nfsd are dropped - nfs-common and nfs-server are introduced, both have their config files on /etc/conf.d nfs-common is intended to run on nfs clients + server nfs-server is intended to run on nfs server - NFS4 is implemented please try and give feedback to make this one bullet proof thanks greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

This stuff should definitely get in a news item when it rolls out. It is rather extensive changes as my existing NFS setup would have completely busted without doing s/nfsd/nfs-server/, s/portmap/rpcbind/, killing nfslock, etc. It should also be very apparent what exact changes need to be made (I think I covered most of them there). For now, I am *not* signing off until we get an install message that doesn't tell me a bunch of unnecessary stuff (how to set up NFSv4) and does say "this is a rather big upgrade, you are going to have to change things", and nothing more. And please set up the message to only show once so I don't see this on the next nfs-utils version bump (vercmp is your friend). Thanks for doing this upgrade, it looks like this set of tools is a bit more self-contained, robust, and supports nfs 3 and 4 quite well. -Dan
