[lug] Debian Woody and NFS Version 3

[Ferdinand Schmid]

Thanks,

I will re-compile my kernel with those settings and see if that works.  Apparently I had 
been chasing after the wrong package.  Those settings were in fact not enabled in my 
2.4.26 kernel - so maybe I don't need a different nfs-package after all.
