Hi guys, I notice that mount SIGHUP=E2=80=99s mountd every time mount succeeds. = The SIGHUP causes mountd to remount all exported directories.If this = happens while a NFS-client is accessing a share, an access error may = occur. For this purpose, there is an option to mount, -S, which locks nfsd = while the remount is executing. Can anyone of you share why mount needs to SIGHUP mountd in the first = place? It would make sense if mountd is restarted whenever /etc/exports = is modified, but always seems like overkill. /Olavi=20
