:> Call rpc.umntall only if nfs_client_enable, hang occurse otherwise
:
:Can you please tell me why it hangs ? That means :
:
:- Is there a /var/db/mounttab ? (If no it should just skip)
:- Have you disconected the network while operating and have
: not connected since then ?
:
:The utility only does something if :
:
:- /var/db/mounttab exists
:- you have not properly unmounted your nfs-filesystems
:
:So a normal user will never have hangs during startup if he
:does not use nfs.
:
:Why don't you ask dillon or me before doing the commit ? Even
:if you are right, I'm interested in discussing it first.

This is essentially Martin's work so he has last word. rpc.umntall
is supposed to timeout if it does not have connectivity so if it is
improperly hanging that's a bug. Whether the fix is to move the
placement of the program in the rc scripts or 'fix' the program
to do a better job of timing out is up to Martin.
