Hi.
When my NFS server machine is taken down, the client notices this (I get
log messages from both amd and the kernel on the client), but
the client does not realize when the server is up again, and therefore
I have to restart the client to be able to access the NFS mounted 
directories. 
Is there any way to have the client notice
when the server gets back to life, and then mounting the NFS shares again?
(now i get "Resource temporarily unavailable" when trying to access the 
nfs directories after a server restart)

Relevant konfigurations on the client:
in /etc/tc.conf
nfs_client_enable="YES"
amd_enable="YES"
portmap_enable="YES"

in /etc/rc.cong on the server
nfs_server_enable="YES"
portmap_enable="YES"

rpc.statd is running on both hosts.

/sverre
