nlockmgr static port

Hi,
I am about to configure a firewall (ufw), but I saw that the NFS-Server or better nlockmgr use random ports.

I managed to make statd and mountd ports static.
I tried modprobe options in /etc/modprobe/nlock.conf with

# Static ports for NFS lockd
options lockd nlm_udpport=4001 nlm_tcpport=4001

but it didn't do anything.

How can I set its port to a particular one?

I would suggest you confirm your kernel version.

Some of this can be controlled by module parameters, some from sysctl. See http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/fs/lockd/svc.c#L57

Allright, I got it by setting all default options in "/etc/conf.d/nfs-common.conf"

STATD_OPTS="-p 32765 -o 32766 -T 32803"

I cannot understand what these options are for, but it works.
