Okay another guess, Try replacing "defaults" with "defaults,auto" I'd expect auto to be part of the normal defaults set for an NFS entry but you never know. On Thu, Dec 12 at 05:33, Tim wrote: > Hi Bob, > > Having spent ages looking at the that line I had not noticed the missing > "/" but it

Hi Tim, So "sudo mount -a" mounts it? Strange that it doesn't mount on boot then, if the fstab entry is correct. Maybe it's trying to mount before the networking is set up? Best, Hamish On 12 December 2024 17:48:31 GMT, Tim wrote: >Hi Ralph > >Mount on booting, if I want to mount it I have to

Hi Bob, Having spent ages looking at the that line I had not noticed the missing "/" but it would still mount manually without it and respond correctly to the other  commands I passed against the NFS. Unfortunately adding the missing forward slash has made no difference to the non-mounting, it

Hi, Just a small observation but in the fstabs in my MX-linux and Linux Mint machines that NFS mount from a Gentoo server. The line would read: 192.168.18.150:/volume1/Data    /media/nas    nfs    defaults 0    0 Note the addition of / before volume1. On Wed, Dec 11 at 05:55, Tim wrote: ... >
