Hello there colleagues,

we've got a machine which is used as kinda "full of useful dump" ;-)
all of its useful files as exported via readonly NFS, and mouned on the
neighbors (mostly via TCP, with '-T,-b,-s,-i,nosuid,nodev').

some days ago I decided to move files to gain "new dirpref" performance
boost. unfortunately, i've forgotten to unmount nfs partition from outer
machines.

now, after new boot, all of them show me an error such as

/pub/.3: Stale NFS file handle

moreover, I even can't umount them, even with -f, or re-mount it over.
AFAIR, some times ago umount -f did work.

Are there workarounds? we can survive without these files, and we
definitely are not happy with rebooting some vital machines...

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
D.Marck                                   [DM5020, DM268-RIPE, DM3-RIPN]
