- Running IBM TCP/IP v1.2.1 with NFS, I find that the directory
- listing of a network-mounted drive shows volume label NFS
- instead of the actual label. This is a problem because an
- application wants to check the volume label to see if the
- correct CD-ROM is mounted! The documentation contains no
- hints about how to force the NFS client to report the true
- volume label. Is there a way to do this?
