An NFS server for v2,3 (NFSv4 is a different story) is "stateless" and doesn't know what mounted on it. All the "umount" does is tell the server's mountd daemon it has unmounted, so the server's mountd can maintain a table of mounts that can be queried via "showmount". The -current umount.c always does this via "udp", so it would fail. The only effect is that "showmount" might reply bogus info. It seems that the problem is specific to "udp" and some arches. (I can't reproduce it on i386 and at least one person sees it on amd64.) Maybe people who see the problem can post to the -current list, noting what arch they are using and network config (running virtualized, what net hardware, multiple net interfaces, etc). Hopefully there is some commonality among them? Thanks in advance for any help tracking this down, rick
