Description Elmar Stellnberger 2007-04-02 10:59:04 UTC
nfs-mount: link_relative not supported any more
nfs-export: nohide-option has no effect (documentation says it is available!)
If configured via YaST2 user is not informed about any error messages at server reload!
Comment 1 Thomas Fehr 2007-04-04 08:19:38 UTC
yast2-storage does not have anything to do with nfs mounts.
I assume this is related to yast2-nfs-client
Comment 2 Martin Vidner 2007-04-04 12:49:47 UTC
> nfs-mount: link_relative not supported any more

That option is only available in the userspace server (nfs-server.rpm), not in the kernel one (nfs-utils.rpm).

> nfs-export: nohide-option has no effect (documentation says it is available!)

Are you not making this mistake?
man exports:
  The nohide option is currently only effective on single host exports.  It does not work reliably with netgroup, subnet,  or  wildcard exports.

Martin, what information do you need?
Comment 4 Martin Vidner 2007-09-13 08:49:25 UTC
yast2-nfs-server gets the options as a string and does almost no checks on them. That makes it very easy to use invalid option combinations, which I believe was the case here and that was what I was trying to verify with Elmar.

The part about hiding error messages is a valid bug.
I think that we should extend the Service module to provide Service::Errors() if Service::Start/Stop/Restart...() has failed.

Originally reported on 10.2, moving to 11.0 because we only fix red bugs for 10.3 now.

Changing maintainers.
Comment 6 Lukas Ocilka 2008-05-20 22:10:57 UTC
Closing as LATER for ENOTIME, Sorry.
Some of them might be closed as NOTAPPLICABLEANYMORE (which needs further checking).
Comment 7 Stephan Kulow 2008-06-25 09:10:38 UTC
mass reopening of later+remind bugs of 11.0
Comment 8 Katarina Machalkova 2008-08-07 08:36:20 UTC
Hm, why this one ended up assigned to me? This seems to be nfs-server (not client) issue
Comment 9 Martin Vidner 2010-11-02 14:52:22 UTC
This bug has been open for long but I haven't found the to fix it,
so now I close it. Sorry.

If you still care about it, please reopen it.
