Package: initscripts Version: 2.88dsf-13.1 Severity: normal /etc/default/rcS allow use option ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no to make NFS mounts synchronous.
But this option is ignored when interface marked as 'hotplug' (not auto) in /etc/network/interfaces. I think the problem is in function exit_unless_last_interface, which one check only interfaces, listed in 'auto' statement and ignore all others, noted as 'hotplug'. By default all eth interfaces listed not as 'auto', but as 'hotplug' by installer. This cause option ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no useless in case of 'default installation of server with ethernet interface'. I see two solution for this problem: 1) check every interface, market as 'hotplug' to be online and wait until they complete mounting. 2) Keep current situation, anounce it as 'feature' and add note to rcS manual page about mandatory 'auto' declation for interfaces, add checking fo hotplug interfaces (non-empty hotplug statement) and print warning on screen, when ASYNCMOUNTNFS is disabled. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages initscripts depends on: ii coreutils 8.5-1 GNU core utilities ii debianutils 3.4.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.11.2-11 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii lsb-base 3.2-27 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii mount 2.17.2-9 Tools for mounting and manipulatin ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-13.1 System-V-like runlevel change mech ii sysvinit-utils 2.88dsf-13.1 System-V-like utilities Versions of packages initscripts recommends: ii e2fsprogs 1.41.12-2 ext2/ext3/ext4 file system utiliti ii psmisc 22.13-1 utilities that use the proc file s initscripts suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed _______________________________________________ Pkg-sysvinit-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sysvinit-devel
