Well, at east the sed man page in german is quite different from the |
| 16 |
englisch one, maybe that's the case here, too. Does yours explain the |
| 17 |
(no_)subtree_check option? I had t look them up online. |

Bug #116269 from end of 2005 misses the rpc.ugidd, the answer there is that |
| 24 |
nfs-utils does not yet support it. And I doubt it ever will, I just read |
| 25 |
that this is a feature of user space NFS, which seems to be deprecated. A |
| 26 |
kernel based NFS does not have it. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
So, so seem to be right, ID mapping just is not possible (any more). |

But what about NFS v4? Is has user authentification, maybe then there's a |
| 31 |
mapping feature, too? |
