How do you specify nfs swap in the fstab file? I have been trying the
way diskless(8) says and a few permutations thereof, but so far without
luck. I get the feeling that swapon don't know how to handle nfs swap.
What I have tried was:
10.1.2.3:/export/myclient/swap none swap sw,nfsmntpt=/swap
10.1.2.3:/export/myclient/swap none swap sw
10.1.2.3:/export/myclient/swap none nfs sw
But each time I get this message:
swapon: 10.1.2.3:/export/myclient/swap: No such file or directory
