Subject: [gentoo-user] Unable to start rpc-idmap after kernel update...

1 Ok, I just need a sanity check...
2
3 I just updated my kernel from 2.6.37-r4 to 3.0.6, and now am unable to
4 mount a remote nfs filesystem (on a QNAP NFS) that has been working fine
5 for years...

7 I'm getting the following error:
8
9 myhost : Sun Dec 11, 12:20:00 : ~
10 # /etc/init.d/rpc.idmapd start
11 * Starting idmapd ...
12 * make sure DNOTIFY support is enabled ...
13
14 [ !! ]
15 * ERROR: rpc.idmapd failed to start
16 myhost : Sun Dec 11, 12:20:03 : ~

19 what is confusing me is I have never had DNOTIFY support enabled (I only
20 enable INOTIFY), and I simply did a makeoldconfig when
21 upgrqading/compiling the kernel, so why was it working before, but not now?
22
23 Do I really have to enable DNOTIFY now? If so, why did it work before?
24
25 Thanks...
