We want to run hlfsd (part of the BSD automounter utilities suite), which seems to require the ability to disable the attribute cache on the NFS filesystem it creates. According to the documentation one can force it to run anyway, but since it operates by returning different values for the same symbolic link depending on how it's accessed, any amount of caching may cause incorrect values to be returned. I assume disabling the cache is possible under FreeBSD, but hlfsd and I just don't know how. Please enlighten us. :-) Thanks ... Andrew J.
