Another issue that you might want to look into before the release.
When running on the snapshot from yesterday,
(1.13.0-DEVELOPMENT #0: Sun Jul 13 00:54:52 CEST 2008)
when a host cannot resolve, we get this error
# mount 10.0.0.10:/home /mnt
nfs: bad net address 10.0.0.10
If the host in DNS or /etc/hosts on the client, it mounts fine by either
IP address or host name. It only occurs if it cannot resolve.
I found a posting, that sounds related, from back in February that said,
:mount -t nfs 6pack:/ /mnt
:
:will fail and issue a warning about bad net address 6pack. There is a
:patch below which might be helpful for fixing this.
and apparently Matt committed a patch.
The problem does not exist on my 1.10.1-RELEASE machine. However, it
appears that it or a similar bug has been re-introduced.
