Too bad x2.

Your indirect map uses "/misc/bazinga" as a mount point. Doesn't
Bazinga/bazinga mean anything to you?

Do you have a reference to Bazinga in "/var/lib/nfs/sm*/"?

Someone suggested using different options including "soft"; I
wouldn't. I'd try "mount/umount" without any options as a test.
