The only thing I do notice is that it takes a little longer (3 seconds)
to mount which could be the "mounting on access". But for me the issue
is negligible be it mount on boot up or mount on access. In a production
environment or where the drive is being used to store data that is
required by a certain app that needs it at boot, then it is likely to be
a bigger issue.
Thanks as always for your input Ralph

Hi Tim,
After a lot of testing, re-reading of web pages I have managed to get
the nas to auto-mount on boot up. I found this page had the right info
to get a working configuration:
https://www.linuxtechi.com/automount-nfs-share-in-linux-using-autofs/
Particularly sections 2 & 3
Glad you got it sorted, but reading that page tells me it's mounting
on access, not mounting on boot as you wanted. It could be the
difference can't be discerned given the use.
That page also mentions systemd automounts these days, and
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Autofs#Alternatives_to_AutoFS says
systemd is an alternate.
Still, now it's working you may want to leave it alone.
