Re: [NFS] "mount: File exists" when trying to mount a second krb5 volume!

Hi Ian,

Regarding the resolution of the issue, Trond sent out a patch.  Please see:

http://linux-nfs.org/pipermail/nfsv4/2006-November/005315.html

I've verified this patch on my system and Trond had it working as well.
The initial confusion was that the patch did not apply to 2.6.18 and
when I hacked it up it was causing segfaults on umount.  But that's not
really a concern since we can get the patch into 2.6.19 and up.

Thanks,
Paarvai
