I have just discovered that 'mount.nfs' defaults to applying the option 'vers=4'. This was causing me problems with nfs3 mounts via autofs. I presume that this behaviour is a change between 10.04 and 10.10, since I never encountered this difficulty in Lucid.
If this was an intentional change, I wonder what the purpose of the 'mount.nfs4' command is?? In my opinion, this should count as a bug and the behaviour of 'mount.nfs' be returned to that of earlier versions. In my case, I have worked around the problem by adding 'vers=3' to the end of the '/net' line in /etc/auto.master -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/680680 Title: mount picks the wrong version of NFS filesystem -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
