Hi
Whilst V3 will connect to a V2 it will be very slow.

If using NFS download and install the latest version to all machines.

Hi:

PV3 (protocol version) allows access to larger files than with NFS PV2.

By default, 'rpc.mountd' will use use PV3 to mount a file system. If the NFS server doesn't support this, 'rpc.mountd' will use PV2.

See 'man 1M mountd' for more details.

Regards!
