[Thinstation-general] ThinStation /mnt/nfs defaulting to vers=2

[Todd P. <pf...@rh...>]

Hi ThinStation folks,

I'm trying to use NFS for STORAGE_PATH in ThinStation-6.

To support that, I've got these two lines in build.conf:

module nfs
package nfs

and those seem to be sufficient to support an NFSv4 mount.  I can do the 
intended NFS mount manually from the command line when the thinstation is 
booted and I've sshed in.

The problem I have is that the /mnt/nfs entry in /etc/fstab is being 
generated like this:

server:/thin /mnt/nfs nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,vers=2,intr 0 0


vers=2?  Really?  I don't recall using NFSv2 since the last millenium.

Anyway, where do I change this?  Is it a build.conf setting or a 
thinstation.conf.buildtime setting or do I have to find and modify some 
source file that should have been changed from vers=2 to vers=3 years ago.

I'm netbooting so I could modify the initrd and make this change but I'd 
like to change the source that generates this fstab entry in initrd so 
that the change persists for future builds.

In my case, I probably want vers=4 since ThinStation-6 seems to not 
support NFSv3 - this is output during build:

Package : nfs   Module: nfsv4
Package : nfs   Module: nfsv3
Notice! Module nfsv3.ko not found for kernel 5.10.89TS


Was this intentional, to remove NFSv3 support?

As I wrote above, NFSv4 seems to be working fine manually.

Thanks,
Todd
