-This is the Linux NFS utility package version 0.1.7. It is based on
-knfsd 1.4.7.

-WARNING: The NFS servers in Linux 2.2 to 2.2.13 are not compatible with
-other NFS client implemenations. If you plan to use Linux 2.2.x as an
-NFS server for non-Linux NFS clients, you should get the Linux NFS
-kernel from the Linux NFS CVS server:
-
-1. Set the environment variable, CVS_RSH, to ssh. It is not required
-for anonymous access.
-
-2. Login to the Linux NFS CVS server:
-
-# cvs -z 3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.nfs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nfs login
-
-without password if it is your first time.
-
-3. Check out the current Linux 2.2 NFS kernel:
-
-a. From the NFS V2 branch:
-
-# cvs -z 3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.nfs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nfs co -r linux-2-2-nfsv2 linux-2.2
-
-b. From the main trunk:
-
-# cvs -z 3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.nfs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nfs co linux-2.2
-
-4. If you don't want to use the current NFS kernel, you can find out
-for which kernels the NFS patch is available:
-
-# cd linux-2.2
-# cvs -z 9 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.nfs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nfs status -v Makefile
-
-Then generate the kernel patch:
-
-# cvs -z 3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.nfs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nfs rdiff -ko -u -r linux-2-2-xx -r linux-2-2-xx-nfsv2-xxxxx linux-2.2
-
-If there is no NFS patch for the kernel you are interested in, you have
-to make a patch closest to your kernel version and apply it by hand.
-
-There is a Linux NFS kernel source tree for Linux 2.3, linux-2.3, on
-the Linux NFS CVS server. We will need all the help we can get. To
-contribute to the Linux NFS project, please go to
-
-http://www.sourceforge.net
-
-You register yourself. Please send an email to
-nfs-admin@nfs.sourceforge.net with
-
-1. Your user id on www.sourceforge.net.
-2. The area in NFS you'd like to work on.
-
-You will be notified when it is done.
