Is there anyway to circumvent this behaviour? I recently discovered that when a machine gets rebooted its missing the first NFS mount point because the nfs client is booting in parallel to nscd which is causing a race condition the always misses the first mount point ( I can't statically define IP in /etc/hosts because it points to a dynamic nameserver which returns one of many IPs to mount from ).

Moving the nfs services to the back of the init process in runlevels 3 & 5 and turning of the parallel boot flag in /etc/sysconfig/boot seems to have done the trick, but insserv keeps messing up my linking and in turn I have a bunch of people showing up at my door unable to login (home directories are the first mount point in the fstab).
