Mount modern NFS shares

Mounting modern NFS shares on IRIX is troublesome. NFSv4 is not supported, and UDP protocol is disabled on modern NFS implementations. So NFS filesystems on IRIX cannot be configured by the GUI anymore with recent file servers like TrueNAS SCALE.

But with the line below added to your /etc/fstab, it's fairly simple:

<nfs_server_fqdn>:<remote_path> <local_path> nfs vers=3,proto=tcp,rw,bg,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 0 0
