s you said in the next message, on the client. I\ve looked at the specs for this option (in man 5 rcS) and I don't see how it will help. It merely delays the time the filesystem is mounted until later in the boot process. However, I boot it manually, long after the boot is finished. Still, I'll try it tomorrow, and see if it works. All may not be as described. No. Wait. The /etc/fstab line is 172.25.1.11:/farhome /farhome nfs defaults,user,auto,exec 1 1 So ot's mounted automatically *and* allowed to be user-mounted. (I wonser if these options conflict.) So when I mount it by hand it's after (presumably) it has already (presumably) failed to mount .... Definitely to try it tomorrow when I'm awake and nobody's relying on continuous service. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
