Which is the default in most environments; it's the "-mapall" option that can cause problems.

NAS devices like EMC, Cisco, and Netapp that integrate into your Kerberos/LDAP/NIS environment should function perfectly fine.

Hello,

Is it possible to mount Courier mail queue over NFS?

I'm very curious, because I'm going to run a few OpenVZ front-ends with Courier and I don't want to move Courier mail queue while migrating one of my OpenVZ front-end to another physical machine.

I don't remember the exact semantics of inode treatment over NFS. This will work only if all NFS clients receive the same inode number for the same file on the exported partition.
