[ILUG] nfs not served via tcp

[Conor Wynne]

Whats that then, Redhat 9? If so then by default no, You aint got no TCP
my friend. 
Thats your problem. Either recompile your kernel or move to something
more sane like a supported distribution.

p.s.: fix you mail client, its rather annoying trying to reply
correctly. 
I _had_ to top post reply. !
 
If outlook --> tools, options, email options --> set both to "prefix
each line of the original message"
Then clear your cookies, reboot, re-install windows, and format your C:
drive --> this is important.

Conor.

The remote server must support it, and you failed to mention what it is.

I had a case recently with a customer who ran a windows NFS daemon (not 
SFU)

Anyway, it worked on aix, but not on RHEL4, turned out to be TCP
related.
Worth checking.
