Linus, I'm curious if the NFSv4 patches will be accepted in the near future (ie, before 2.6).
I for one would REALLY like to see NFSv4 (actually, Kerberized NFSv4 is what I'm after). I just finished setting up a Kerberized Solaris NFS environment with home directories automounted from the clients with strong user authentication.
Frankly, the stock (non-Kerberized) NFS security model blows.
The fact that any janitor with a laptop (or any client with a malicious root user) can nuke all home directories from a standard NFS home directory server bothers me greatly.
