New Not what I was asking. And you know that.
I was just wondering if the iSeries OS supported NFSv4.

I KNOW LINUX DOES. Especially with a Kernel after 2.6.19, but even better with 2.6.20.

This works very nicely:
/nfs/data               192.168.1.*(rw,fsid=0,no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)\n/nfs/data/stor          192.168.1.*(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check)\n/nfs/data/music         192.168.1.*(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check)


And damn its as fast as line speed will allow, except that GigE on Linux really does require TOE NICs, or TCP Offload NICs.

         Interesting - I've never tried it... - (imric) - (6) - June 19, 2007, 08:20:15 PM EDT
             What? - (mmoffitt) - June 20, 2007, 01:39:52 PM EDT
             Do *NOT* use SMB. Use NFS. - (mmoffitt) - (4) - June 25, 2007, 04:46:54 PM EDT

                         Not what I was asking. And you know that. - (folkert) - June 25, 2007, 08:31:09 PM EDT
                     I did try CIFS. - (mmoffitt) - June 27, 2007, 04:28:12 PM EDT
         I would think it comes down to the server implementation. - (static) - (4) - June 19, 2007, 09:24:44 PM EDT
             No, no, you're doing fine. ;0) - (mmoffitt) - (3) - June 20, 2007, 01:37:13 PM EDT
                 That is due to CIFS vs SMB. - (folkert) - (1) - June 20, 2007, 02:30:16 PM EDT
                     I'm sure it will. - (mmoffitt) - June 20, 2007, 03:09:06 PM EDT
                 Ah... that I don't know. - (static) - June 21, 2007, 12:36:04 AM EDT
