From 0930b25ee3a1eb28b957cdc70c9a1958812d895f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 05:18:25 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] If mount.nfs is not installed setuid, an attempt to perform a "user" or "users" mount will fail with a fairly obscure error message, typically about getting "permission denied" from the server. This patch gives a more helpful message in that case.
