RE: RE: test failure on .36

Hi Kevin,

Just a little warning:

No need to hit it really hard. It's even in the FAQ. The berkeley DB backend
(currently the only backend) will not work on NFS due to BDB limitations
regarding NFS.

To all who run their repository on an NFS drive: beware disasters *will*
happen!

bye,

Erik.
