I don't see any. Removing the share from /etc/exports and HUPing mountd(8) only helps for new mount requests, not existing mounts. Killing nfsd is probably your safest bet. Being able to "freeze" a certain nfs exported share on the server would be a cool feature, though. hauke -- Hauke Fath <[email protected]> Ernst-Ludwig-Straße 15 64625 Bensheim Germany
