I can reproduce it on Karmic: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.10 DISTRIB_CODENAME=karmic DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.10"
Scenario 1: myserver is powered down: time mount -t nfs myserver.local:/Images /mnt/myserver mount.nfs: mount system call failed real 1m0.008s user 0m0.004s sys 0m0.004s Scenario 2: myserver is powered up, but nfsserver not running time mount -t nfs myserver.local:/Images /mnt/myserver mount.nfs: mount to NFS server 'myserver.local:/Images' failed: RPC Error: Program not registered real 0m0.025s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.012s I think, mount.nfs should always work like Scenario 2 -- autofs hangs when server unavailable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234480 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
