In my experience the 'intr' filesystem mount option does not always work. As an example, I am often unable to abort from a hung 'df' when a remote NFS server is down. (Even if my current directory is not NFS-mounted.) This might be a problem specific to 'df', though. Ideally 'df' should check to make sure a remote NFS server is responding (via the NFS null procedure) before trying to get any filesystem info for that filesystem. -- Rahul Dhesi <dhesi@spams.r.us.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
