Back in April I wrote: On Thu, 9 Apr 2020, Pfaff, Todd wrote: > I'm having stability problems with nfs-ganesha 2.8 and PROXY FSAL on > CentOS 7. and this has been ongoing for me since then. Today I finally stumbled onto something that may have solved at least some of the problems that I've been having with nfs-ganesha. I also posted the following as a follow up to the nfs-ganesha github issue: frequent failures with PROXY FSAL (#580). ... I've discovered something that may be relevant to this issue. - My nfs-ganesha server is serving several EXPORTs. - Two of these EXPORTs refer to identically named PATHs on two different back-end servers. - I've now changed these so that the back-end server paths are different. - I've tested this multiple times with multiple VMs and it appears that this change may have eliminated all traces of the problems that I've been describing here. Does this make sense? Is it known that nfs-ganesha can not have multiple exports with the same value for the Path?

I have rpcbind running on the host, and I need to make that available in the systemd-nspawn container in which ganesha.nfsd is running. Any ideas?
