- Choose Y here if you want to access files residing on other
- computers using Sun's Network File System protocol. To compile
- this file system support as a module, choose M here: the module
- will be called nfs.
-
- To mount file systems exported by NFS servers, you also need to
- install the user space mount.nfs command which can be found in
- the Linux nfs-utils package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
- Information about using the mount command is available in the
- mount(8) man page. More detail about the Linux NFS client
- implementation is available via the nfs(5) man page.
-
- Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
- available in the kernel to mount NFS servers. Support for NFS
- version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when NFS_FS is selected.
-
- To configure a system which mounts its root file system via NFS
- at boot time, say Y here, select "Kernel level IP
- autoconfiguration" in the NETWORK menu, and select "Root file
- system on NFS" below. You cannot compile this file system as a
- module in this case.

- If unsure, say N.

- depends on NFS_V3
- help
- Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
- Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the
- NFS version 3 protocol. This protocol extension allows
- applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control
- Lists on files residing on NFS servers. NFS servers enforce
- ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.
-
- Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL
- protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow
- applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.
-
- Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol
- extension. You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount
- option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3
- ACL protocol.
-
- If unsure, say N.

-config ROOT_NFS

- without local permanent storage. For details, read

- You may choose to use a user-space NFS server instead, in which
- case you can choose N here.
-
- To export local file systems using NFS, you also need to install
