Description Andrew McNabb 2009-10-19 22:20:08 UTC
Description of problem:

In Rawhide (with nfs-utils-1.2.0-16.fc12.x86_64), I tried running:

mount -t nfs4 10.0.0.10:/ /aml

which threw the error:

mount.nfs4: an incorrect mount option was specified

Apparently NFSv3 works: mount -t nfs 10.0.0.10:/aml /aml

I am using the same server from up-to-date Fedora 11 clients (with nfs-utils-1.2.0-5.fc11.x86_64) where mount.nfs4 works without any problems.

I tried again after running `rpcdebug -m nfs -s mount` and then got the errors:

Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS: nfs mount opts='nfsvers=3,addr=10.0.0.10,clientaddr=10.0.0.218'
Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS:   parsing nfs mount option 'nfsvers=3'
Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS:   parsing nfs mount option 'addr=10.0.0.10'
Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS: parsing IPv4 address 10.0.0.10
Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS:   parsing nfs mount option 'clientaddr=10.0.0.218'
Oct 19 16:14:55 localhost kernel: NFS4: Illegal mount version

Apparently something is specifying nfsvers=3 even though I gave it "-t nfsv4".
