In my case (Dapper), adding to /etc/modules.conf (actually to /etc/modutils/local-lockd and running update-moduls to populate /etc/modules.conf) didn't help, as I've verified with "cat /sys/module/lockd/parameters/nlm_*port".
The proper place was /etc/modprobe.conf, or rather /etc/modprobe.d/options. Content the same, works fine. -- need way to specify the lockd port https://launchpad.net/bugs/28706 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
