I have a 2.2.6-RELEASE machine set up to be a NFS Server. I have several IRIX machines set up as NFS clients to this machine. I'm getting the following strange behavior: % mount scooby:/RAID/share /usr/share % df <other file systems> scooby:/RAID/share nfs <numbers numbers numbers> /usr/share % mount scooby:/RAID/FLT /usr/FLT mount: scooby:/RAID/FLT server not responding: Timed out NFS version 3 mount failed, trying NFS version 2 mount: giving up on: /usr/FLT Now, what makes this strange is that the first one works, and the second one doesn't. However, if I wait, say, a minute or two, the second mount works! I can ping the NFS server all the while. The second mount looks like: % mount scooby:/RAID/FLT /usr/FLT % df <other file systems> scooby:/RAID/share nfs <numbers numbers numbers> /usr/share scooby:/RAID/FLT nfs <numbers numbers numbers> /usr/FLT What? Why is this? An obvious consequence of this problem is that permanently mounted file systems (i.e. in /etc/fstab) won't mount at boot time. Users complain when /usr/share is missing ;) Following is the /etc/exports entry on the FreeBSD NFS server: /RAID -alldirs -maproot=0 -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0 Any ideas?
