How to make NetInfo shares information survive WGM edits ?

[jonosx]

Hello

We have the NFS ’32bitclients’ problem – we have lots of 32 bit NFS clients (running Linux) and as we all know the nfs server in Tiger is broken, it will only serve out 64 bit cookies unless it is given the ’32bitclients’ directive in NetInfo.

However.

Whenever one makes any changes whatsoever to shares information in WGM, then saves, the netinfo db gets overwritten – some entries with data you have entered, others with _default_ values.

I would like to make the 32bitclients directive survive WGM shares edits – can anyone tell me if the NFS default settings might be stored somewhere where I can edit them ?

Best Regards
Jon
