NFS Confused Am I Using TCP or UDP
I am trying to setup nfs and I am confused if I am using UDP or TCP. When I run rpcinfo -p on the server the output is below. Both UDP and TCP are listed, so how do I know which protcol I am using?

The server listens to both. Whether you use TCP or UDP is specified when mounting the share. Either write
orCode:mount -o tcp 127.0.0.1:/foo /mnt/bar
If you don't specify the protocol the default should be TCP in NFSv4 but if you are unsure just specify that option explicitly.Code:mount -o udp 127.0.0.1:/foo /mnt/bar
EDIT:
To see how your share is currently mounted on your system look in /proc/mountsRefining Linux Advent calendar: “24 Outstanding ZSH Gems”
