Hi

attached is a new patch for nfs name snooping, it fixes the bug where the
'/'
separating path components were sometimes missing.

the patch snoops certain nfs and mount packets to track the fhandle to
filename mapping.
when activated it will then also display the known filename together with
every displayed fhandle.

optionally one can also activate snooping of the full path name for every
fhandle.
when activated this feature will display the full path name for every
fhandle that is displayed,
if the full path is known that is.

it also adds a simple 32 bit xor hash value for every fh.
using this hash makes it 'easier' to filter for specific fhandles.

enjoy
