 Posted: Thu Nov 17, 2005 10:35 am Post subject: NFS timeout when automounting in fstab (SOLVED) |
 |
|
I have an NFS share on my server that I have all of my machines mount at boot, via /etc/init.d/netmount. I just set it to "defaults" in fstab. I'm having an issue with it on one machine (my laptop), when I take it elsewhere. If I'm somewhere other than home (like in a place with free wi-fi), it hangs at "mounting network filesystems" during boot for approximately 5 minutes while it's waiting for the NFS to time out. Is there a way I can change this timeout time to say 30 seconds? Otherwise I'll have to set my NFS share to noauto in fstab and mount it manually when I'm at home.

| I think I'm going to give autofs a try. I have the kernel module for it enabled, I just need to install it on my laptop. I have my laptop at work with me though, and there aren't any access points here I can use, so I probably won't be able to mess with it anymore until later tonight when I get home. |
