>Organization:
GMD Fokus
>Environment:

	nsswitch.conf is setup as:

	hosts: files nis dns

	a lot of NFS file systems are mounted in /etc/fstab

>Description:

	mount_nfs blocks *very* long trying to get the NFS server's host
	names via NFS. changing the order to 'files dns nis' is a workaround.
	'files nis dns' works on Solaris without problems and should also
	on FreeBSD.

>How-To-Repeat:

	1. Edit /etc/nsswitch.conf as:

	hosts: files nis dns

	2. Mount at least on NFS file system in /etc/fstab for which you
	have no entry in /etc/hosts.

	3. Reboot and watch the NFS mount blocking.

>Fix:

	Change the order in /etc/rc to mount NFS after doing the ypbind.
