Hi there,
trying to mount nfs-shares at boot I have exactly the problem mentioned by Christian:

Christian then recommends applying a unit he calls wait-for-nfs-server.
My problem now is that if I apply that unit (or do other tricks like a sleep in
/etc/network/interfaces the mounts are there after booting, but I have errors
like that in journalctl:

Why the flag and what does it mean? rpc.statd[681]: Flags: TI-RPC
And the other errors:
rpc.statd[683]: failed to create RPC listeners, exiting
nfs-common[673]: Starting NFS common utilities: statd failed!
systemd[1]: nfs-common.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: NFS support files common to client and server.
systemd[1]: Unit nfs-common.service entered failed state.
and if I do a
root@hhh:~# ps aux | grep rpc
root 669 0.1 0.0 37168 2904 ? Ss Jul14 1:42 /sbin/rpcbind -w
statd 681 0.0 0.0 37268 2876 ? Ss Jul14 0:00 rpc.statd --no-notify
root 692 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< Jul14 0:00 [rpciod]

root 2758 0.0 0.0 14192 2284 pts/0 S+ 15:42 0:00 grep rpc
So, rpc.statd is there, but why with the --no-notify option?
To me it looks like rpc.statd gets started multiple times (why?) and that confuses me and the whole nfs mount process.
Now the question is: Is that normal or should I worry about it? Do you (Christian) also get such errors in journalctl?
