Hi,

this issue (the thread will soon celebrate its first birthday) has popped onto
my TODO list again.

Is there any chance someone at Sun could look at this?

Being desperate about not being able to help solve this issue, I was also
thinking about an alternative approach which would not involve modifying the
lockmanager code, but which I don't find particularly elegant:

We could introduce a tunable to override config->knc_proto = NC_UDP in
clnt_tli_kcreate
 
http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/rpc/clnt_gen.c#75
 if (knc_protofmly equal NC_INET* ) && (prog == PMAPPROG)).

But I guess if I was a core contributor, I'd probably deny this suggestion
straight away.

Nils
