What can I do, If the NFS server is rebooting/offline? I mean the clients just wait and wait and wait... I tried to set timeo=5,retrans=2 mount options when mounting nfs in fstab on client side still no luck, clients are just waiting... Can I set a timeout somewhere? :D Thank you for any tips -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I tried "ls --color=never" https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=468049 it still waits I tried on the client side with other mount options: intr, soft it still waits update :D : I turn the NFS server down Clients hang reboot client client cant see the NFS share, but at least it doesn't wait's for it I start the NFS server reboot client It can see the shares again Client's are Lenny's ps.: amm...the nfs server is really an unfs3 server in an openwrt kamikaze 8.09 router... :) :S -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
