You're right, thanks. Although with the config file below, mountd no longer starts but showmount no longer works... Unless there's an alternative to "showmount -d" and showmount -e", disabling the mountd daemon isn't worth the price. (By the way, on 6.2 - and perhaps earlier 6s - 'MOUNTD_NFS_V1="no"' isn't necessary.) # cat /etc/sysconfig/nfs RPCNFSDARGS="-N 2 -N 3" LOCKD_TCPPORT=4001 LOCKD_UDPPORT=4001 MOUNTD_PORT=4002 RPCMOUNTDOPTS="-N 2 -N 3" STATD_PORT=4003 STATD_OUTGOING_PORT=4004 RQUOTAD="no" RQUOTAD_PORT=4005 #RPCRQUOTADOPTS=""
