I've been trying to update nfs-utils but have had problems starting
nfsd. The error message is:
writing fd to kernel failed: errno 97
This apparently happens when trying to set up for ipv6. Passing
--disable-ipv6 to the nfs-utils configure fixes it for me, but what is
wrong with my kernel? I have:
CONFIG_IPV6=y
# CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_OPTIMISTIC_DAD is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_MIP6 is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_VTI is not set
CONFIG_IPV6_SIT=y
# CONFIG_IPV6_SIT_6RD is not set
CONFIG_IPV6_NDISC_NODETYPE=y
# CONFIG_IPV6_TUNNEL is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_GRE is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES is not set
# CONFIG_IPV6_MROUTE is not set
# CONFIG_NF_DEFRAG_IPV6 is not set
# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV6 is not set
# CONFIG_NF_TABLES_IPV6 is not set
# CONFIG_NF_REJECT_IPV6 is not set
CONFIG_NF_LOG_IPV6=y
I'm sure the NF items are not significant, but none of the others make
any sense to me for nfs.
The easy way out for the book is to add --disable-ipv6 to nfs-utils, but
it would be better to explain how to enable ipv6.
Suggestions?
