Comment 4 for bug 680680

I have just discovered that 'mount.nfs' defaults to applying the option 'vers=4'. This was causing me problems with nfs3 mounts via autofs. I presume that this behaviour is a change between 10.04 and 10.10, since I never encountered this difficulty in Lucid.

If this was an intentional change, I wonder what the purpose of the 'mount.nfs4' command is??

In my opinion, this should count as a bug and the behaviour of 'mount.nfs' be returned to that of earlier versions.

In my case, I have worked around the problem by adding 'vers=3' to the end of the '/net' line in /etc/auto.master
