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

  30. help
  31. This option enables support for version 3 of the NFS protocol
  32. (RFC 1813) in the kernel's NFS client.
  33. If unsure, say Y.
  34. config NFS_V3_ACL
  35. bool "NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension"
  36. depends on NFS_V3
  37. help
  38. Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
  39. Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the
  40. NFS version 3 protocol. This protocol extension allows
  41. applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control
  42. Lists on files residing on NFS servers. NFS servers enforce
  43. ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.
  44. Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL
  45. protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow
  46. applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.
  47. Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol
  48. extension. You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount
  49. option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3
  50. ACL protocol.
  51. If unsure, say N.
  52. config NFS_V4

  56. help
  57. This option enables support for version 4 of the NFS protocol
  58. (RFC 3530) in the kernel's NFS client.
  59. To mount NFS servers using NFSv4, you also need to install user
  60. space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
  61. available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
  62. If unsure, say Y.

  77. Say M here if you want your pNFS client to support the Objects Layout Driver.
  78. Requires the SCSI osd initiator library (SCSI_OSD_INITIATOR) and
  79. upper level driver (SCSI_OSD_ULD).

  84. help
  85. If you want your system to mount its root file system via NFS,
  86. choose Y here. This is common practice for managing systems
  87. without local permanent storage. For details, read
  88. <file:Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt>.
  89. Most people say N here.

  115. You will need /sbin/request-key (usually provided by the keyutils
  116. package). For details, read
