The Solaris 2 faq says:
``3.64) Can I use soft mounts with NFS?
Technically, you can, but it's like saying: "please set fire to my server
and take the backups with you too; I don't care about my data at all."
So, DON'T.''
It's an opinion from a different OS community, but on the other hand
NFS is supposed to be standard.
