Is it just me or is there another bug involving 2 FBSD machines running -stable and nfsv2 or v3? In the above situation, if machine A is exporting a directory to machine B and machine A dies unexpectedly, you cannot umount the nfs-mounted directory; the command just hangs forever. "mount" will hang forever as well. Killing off any nfs processes will not help (brutal I thought, but worth a try). Remounting can be difficult, and sometimes a reboot is required. Am I doing something terribly wrong? I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary, I let the startup script do everything, and I'm only exporting one directory.
