But the real behaviour of -c seems different from that of -o conn. I think -c and -o noconn will be commutative. >How-To-Repeat: Mounting a directory from a file server with multiple interfaces, we need to give -c option for mount_nfs. By replacing the option with -o conn, we can see that the mount process does not end. However -o noconn establish the mount as -c does. >Fix: I have no idea to fix the problrem. And I am not sure that the man page is wrong or the implementation od mount_nfs is wrong. But amd has an option noconn which has the similar function as -c of mount_nfs. I guess the man page might be wrong. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
