[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, Anybody know about using NFS with laptops. I want to be able to pick up and go with my laptop -- problem is I seem unable to umount any NFS filesystems when the NFS server is unavailable. The problem is -- I can't run many regular utilities like df without it getting stuck when the NFS mount is unavailable. I've tried the soft option but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Anybody with any good ideas on how best to cope with this situation? -lewiz. -- There cannot be a crisis next week. My schedule is already full. -- Henry Kissinger ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --|| url: http://lewiz.info/ | http://www.westwood.karoo.net/pgpkey ||-- [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+F3iFItq0KFQv7T8RAkr5AJwKYGdlaMIVCotP5EX21eY4MLpPzgCdFfW6 Sw4N20wti+7iAn5TF6iT+44= =SrcA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
