- for dfmounts(1M) and NFSv4:
<snip>
less of file system type. However, the dfmounts command does
not display the names of NFS Version 4 clients.
<snip end>
- for nfslogd(1M) and NFSv4:
<snip>
NFS server logging is not supported on Solaris machines that
are using NFS Version 4.
<snip end>
- for restricting to V3 mounts:
on the server edit /etc/default/nfs the line:
# Sets the maximum version of the NFS protocol that will be registered
# and offered by the server. The default is 4.
#NFS_SERVER_VERSMAX=4
and change it to:
NFS_SERVER_VERSMAX=3
