On our FreeBSD (RELENG_8-based) NFS filer for our local network, we never bothered with the "sharenfs" attribute of the filesystems because, simply put, it didn't seem to work reliably. We use /etc/exports natively and everything Just Works(tm). We've had literally zero problems over the years with this method, and have rebooted the filer numerous times without any repercussions on the client side. Given that this is the 2nd "sharenfs is wonky" thread in the past few hours, I'm left wondering why people bother with it and don't just use /etc/exports. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, US | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
