I'm trying to design a diskless cluster of clients that boot off 2 "master" servers. I want one master server to take over all NFS responsibilities when the other master server is down. The real problem is that the root NFS mount points on the clients do not fail over gracefully. They still have the old filehandle from the master server that is down and are stubborn to let it go and try contacting portmap again. Is there something simple I'm missing, like a timeout option? -- Brandon Poyner, Unix Systems Engineer brandon@veranet.net VeraNet Solutions, a BiznessOnline.com Company http://www.veranet.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-cluster" in the body of the message
