In the System>Daemons menu, starting nfs-common starts /etc/init.d/nfs-common without starting any other services.  I have always found that portmap needs to be running for nfs-common to work.  If that is correct, it would be nice if starting nfs-common from the menu would check if portmap is running and start it if needed.  Thanks

Yea, nfs-common starts rpc.statd, but that fails if there's no portmap enabled, and any start-stop-daemon messages are disabled because of "--quiet". RPC.statd should still error to syslog (if you have it enabled)

Thing is, I'm on 3.4.11, and it seems to be the same thing. Has noone used the nfs-common at all? Has noone needed to use a nfs server since who know's when?

That's funny :laugh:

I remember using DSL as a NFS client without anything but kernel support who knows when, the server side gave a complaint I seemed to lack portmap et al but files moved :)

OK. Will do.
Many moons ago portmap was always started via rcS.d./
I will have nfs-common script check as you have requested.

I've just checked in .torsmorc & found that the display for the file-systems is showing the ratio of FREE space to total space rather than USED space to total space. The bar shows the used space. I had noticed the numbers seemed to reflect the amount of free space rather than used space, but never bothered to check before. To be consistent between the numbers & the bars the fs_used variable should be used instead of the fs_free variable (or perhaps both to give a display of the form used/free/total?)
