Hi, I have a file storage server (NetApp) running a shared NFSv4, That file storage has a unique Operation System, it is not linux/windows, so as long they dont enable NFSv4.1 i am stuck with NFSv4
I am looking for NFSv4 client for windows, so i could browse/list the files in the NFSv4 share, this mean i need to mount that folder, with KRB5 authentication.
What are my options ?
I am familiar with articles:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj574143
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj592688
They are not good, since they mention nothing about NFSv4.
Thanks alot

Hi,
It seems Client for NFS does not support NFS V4.1 in Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012
You may check the thread discussed before.

Hi,
NFSv4 improves on NFSv3 in many important ways; and NFSv4.1 is a further improvement on that. But based on my knowledge, the NFS client can support not v4.

Hi, Thank you so much for the response.
What did you mean by "the NFS client can support not v4'
I understand from that sentence that NFS Client does not support v4 protocol.
How can i get official response form Microsoft support regarding this issue ?
Thanks
