It's not present in config.gz, while in the old .config of the previous release, it _is_ present, plus I'm abble to use network file system support in the current (before the update) kernel. e.g.: (1) kernel version: # uname -r 2.6.25.9 (2) this kernel version's configuration in the sources: # grep NETWORK_FILE linux-2.6.25.9/.config CONFIG_NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS=y (3) this kernel version's configuration in /proc/config.gz # zcat /proc/config.gz | grep NETWORK_FILE # CONFIG_NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS is not set (4) to proof this kernel version has indeed network filesystem: # lsmod| grep nfs nfs 86896 1 lockd 38280 2 nfs nfs_acl 1792 1 nfs sunrpc 101884 10 nfs,lockd,nfs_acl to me, this looks like "CONFIG_NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS" is "forgotten" in config.gz, but what do I know ... please fix if possible, thanks, h. rosmanith
