The patch is available at:
http://www.backplane.com/FreeBSD4/
The patch attempts to solve PR kern/13049 in a slightly different
manner then the solution given by Ian in the PR. In a nutshell, the
problem that we have is that nfsd may return a respond to an NFS request
from a different IP then it was sent to on multihomed systems.
The PR attempts to solve the problem by allowing the kernel nfsd's to
be bound to multiple IP addresses, which is ok, but it also makes
nfsd bind to every imagineable IP address which is often not what you
want to do.
Instead, I have adopted and cleaned up the kernel portions of the patch
and modified nfsd to allow the binding ip/host to be specified on the
command line. Thus nfsd can be run bound to a specific IP address.
This appears to solve the problem and should also allow more useable
interaction between nfs and ipfw.
