In /srvd/usr/athena/lib/update/config, "mkserv ops" is configured to
be a superset of "mkserv quota" and "mkserv remote". On the other
hand, "mkserv nfs" does not include "mkserv quota". We have about an
order of magnitude more "ops" servers than we have quota-enforcing
servers. The smaller group, which use quotas, are our NFS servers.
I'd be satisfied with this patch to /srvd/usr/athena/lib/update/config:
tisiphone% diff config config.new
7a8
> depend nfs quota
9c10
< depend ops quota remote
---
> depend ops remote
That might now, however, please private nfs service providers. (It
seems to me they'd be fine as long as they configure the rest of the
system correctly, though.)
Perhaps I'm "unclear on the concept", but I also see no reason for
"NOATTACH=true" on the servers. I see little reason for it, at all.
I recommend removing this line from the config file mentioned above:
rc.conf NOATTACH true ? ops
This bug report is just as applicable to the 7.0 mkserv, except that
the above patch wouldn't work, and in that the 7.0 "ops" was also
dependent on "mail", which was also wrong.
