mount -t nfs -o nolock,vers=3,ro 192.168.0.231:/test a

works fine

umount a

works fine

but if I mount and then ls / cd the process hangs, I cant kill it at all, and I can't seem to mount this :/

(note the remote box is.... a windows box, heh, yeah, forgive me, I'm trying to use microsoft's "services for unix" to merge a windows network over to linux).

I've seen problems with NFS when the server goes down the client will have the same lockup problem you're seeing. The problem may be that the mount command is succeeding even though it's not really connected.

yeah, that's what I've been starting to think too, unfortunatly I have no idea what to do with it.

atm I'm trying a different windows nfs server.

//edit, tried a shareware server I found on google instead of microsoft's "services for unix" and it worked instantly.
