linux nbd-client error

[akauova]

Hello.
I have a problem with connecting nbd-client on linux. The error is :

It looks like you're trying to connect to an oldstyle server. This is no longer supported since nbd 3.10

How can I fix it? Or will there be updates for the new version of the protocol?

What client and what version are you using?

Sorry, a little late to the game. The new versions of Linux nbd-client now use a different communication protocol than what the nbd-server Windows exe is using. You have to install older versions of nbd-client in order to get them to work together. Not sure if nbd-server can be updated to use the same communication protocols as the new versions of client.

Yes, Linux nbd dropped support for the "oldstyle" protocol in 2015, see NetworkBlockDevice/nbd@3694019 .
