There's probably people on this list more qualified to answer this than I... ;) To my understanding (and educated guessing), the client has a valid NFS file handle in this situation. So, from its POV, it looks like the server has gone away away, and comes back. Why would it need to re-claim its mount from mountd(8)? hauke -- Hauke Fath <[email protected]> Ernst-Ludwig-Straße 15 64625 Bensheim Germany
