When upgrading til version 1:1.0.8+1.0.9pre1-1, my NIS-driven

to 1:1.0.8-8 to be able to file this report ... I have fixed the
automatically generated "depends on:" below to show the installation
when the fault was manifest.
By the way, I just checked man mount, and I can't find any indication on what
"grpid" should mean for NFS -- it sounds ext2/ext3-only. Are you sure this
isn't a stray option being sent into your NFS mounts?
No, I am not sure - the content of the auto.master map is outside my
control. But I will certainly investigate - I can put in a question at
our IT department.
You are right, from the manual 'grpid' looks ext only. Nevertheless, even
on an NFS mounted file system, the same kind of semantics - the groupid of
a newly created file - has to be decided somehow. It is conceivable that
the manual is wrong.
But I guess we have a reprieve now, with the recent decision to withdraw
the mount.nfs program?
best regards
