stop nfsmount on network loss
Vitus Jensen
On my laptop there is a problem when NFS shares are mounted and I move the
suspended laptop to another network where the NFS server is no longer
reachable. In this case I can no longer suspend and "umount -t nfs -a -f"
usually results in a system lock.
The solution could be to change RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING (/etc/conf.d/rc)
from "lo" back to the default "no". This would stop netmount whenever
wlan connection is lost (which unfortunately happens a lot at my place,
this is the reason why I changed to default) but it will also stop sshd
and syslogd which I definitely want to keep whatever happens to the
machine. I don't care whether I loose a SSH connection but I want to
reconnect!
So I changed the "uses" lines in /etc/init.d/sshd and
/etc/init.d/syslogd-ng from net to net.lo. Nobody complained so far, I
haven't made the test to travel with the configuration. Nevertheless it
feels like a hack to change something in /etc/init.d/. Are there better
methods to get what I want? Unmount NFS on suspend, mount on resume?
Bye,
