# nfs-utils 1.0.10
# ================
# Prerequisites:
# portmap
# kerberos (for gss support; leave off --enable-gss=no if you use it)
# libevent and libnfsidmap (for nfsv4 support; leave off
#  --enable-nfsv4=no if they're installed and you want to build it in)
# tcp wrappers (optional)
# mount from util-linux >= 2.11f

# Slackware 8.0 and down included nfs-utils in the 'tcpip1' package.  8.1
# included it in the 'tcpip' package.  Slackware 9.0's 'nfs-utils' package
