I have an application that starts at system start that runs off an NFS
mount. Now, I've found that NFS filesystems are not mounted at system start,
even if they are in /etc/fstab. I read somewhere that this is because of the
order in which network services are generally started.

Obviously, if the NFS filesystem is not mounted the application will not
start.

What is the fix for this? Putting:

/bin/mount -a -t nfs

Or even:

/bin/mount /mnt/nfs-fs

In /etc/rc.d/rc.local won't help because rc.local runs after most other
start-up scripts. But perhaps I'm wrong about rc.local not being helpful.

Any ideas?

Regards, Dustin
