Hi Marc,

I think that nfs strategy to retry forever is a documented feature, not abug. You can override the behaviour by doing a 'soft' mount. If you believethat this bug should remain open, please provide additional information,otherwise I'll close this bug one week from now (Sunday, April 2nd 2006).


Thanks and best regards,

Jurij Smakov                                        jurij@wooyd.org
