Now to make life simple for kernel rebuilds and the like I nfs mount from one machine. This machine has the ports and the src and for added comfort the user directories. At first this seamed like a great idea but it is turning out to be a night mare. When the nfs server "disappears" for what ever reason, all the client services seam to hang. That includes login, web, ssh, named... nothing works. Is there a way to make it so that if that partition disappears the machines don't become hosed?
