Re: Why cannot I do "insmod nfsd.ko" directly?

[Xin Zhao <uszhaoxin@gmail.com>]

I just found the problem. I have to insmod exportfs.ko first. 

I can certainly use modprobe, but what I really want to do is to use
my own nfsd.ko instead of the default one.  But my nfsd.ko is not in
the default /lib/module/... directory. So if I use modprobe, it will
complaint cannot find nfsd.ko.

How to do this? Thanks!
