If your interpretation is correct I do not understand how removing the -s option solves my NSF mount problem. Aside: I have confirmed on a second machine that with the -s option present sometimes the NFS mount fails. First 10 boots no mount failures aha I thought! Second 10 boots 2 mount failures _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
