Package: nfs-common Version: 1:1.1.1-6 Hi,
on a system where the kernel modules nfs and nfs4 are not compiled in (e.g. on a box acting only as a server), the initscript fails to mount /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs which prevents idmapd to start. Amusingly, after the initscript nfs-kernel-server was launched, manually launching '/etc/init.d/nfs-common start' starts rpc.idmapd, which made the problem difficult to debug. I suggest this patch could solve the problem. --- Signed-off by: Quentin Godfroy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- /etc/init.d/nfs-common-bak 2007-11-03 12:25:43.000000000 +0100 +++ /etc/init.d/nfs-common 2007-11-03 13:33:57.000000000 +0100 @@ -138,8 +138,7 @@ case "$1" in if [ "$NEED_IDMAPD" = yes ] || [ "$NEED_GSSD" = yes ] then - do_modprobe nfs - do_modprobe nfs4 + do_modprobe sunrpc if do_mount rpc_pipefs $PIPEFS_MOUNTPOINT then if [ "$NEED_IDMAPD" = yes ] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
