You might even play with other options you find in mount_nfs(8), especially the -T (ot tcp) option might even help or option "-i". Keep on trying... Oliver PS: As I (have to) use an USB Network Adapter and my USB refuses to work completely after a suspend on my notebook (Sony Vaio 505SN) I cannot actually try any of the above by myself, sorry. -- | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | http://www.obh.snafu.de/~ob/ | | Ich bin das Internet.
