Version 1.490 on Ubuntu 9.04 I386 or AMD64.
Creating or editing an NFS3 mount, fails to add parms rw and exec to /etc/fstab.
Recreate by creating or editing an NFS3 mount through webmin and select TCP as the protocol. Then cat /etc/fstab to view the new line created.
It will also fail if you simply change an existing mount created under previous version of webmin from UDP to TCP.
The lack of rw in the /etc/fstab defaults to readwrite when the NFS point is (re)mounted. The lack of exec defaults to noexec.. Bad news if you reboot or remount and want to run something from this mount point. For consistency both should be explicit in /etc/fstab.
Webmin 1.490 remove the explict exec and rw options, on the assumption that the read-write and exec are the defaults.
Has this changed in Linux recently? If so, what are the new defaults?
