Subject:   NFS mount won't unmount

I removed a computer from my network, which had nfs shares, and now on 
another machine I cannot umount that directory. I tried killall -HUP mountd 
but that didn't work. I cannot remove the directory name or unmount it, I 
just get device busy messages. Another sympton of this is when I am using 
KWrite, GVim,  or any gui editor, and use file/open and navigate to the usr2 
partition, it will hang and not show the two directories (the two differant 
nfs mounts from two other machines. One directory is the unmountable and the 
other is mounted and accessible from the term window, as regular user or 
root).  I did search the archives which is where I found the killall -HUP 
mountd command. 
There must be a way to do this without a reboot?
