I've got a quick and dirty hack that I use to get around this. It's mainly the stock netfs script but with the start up section all but removed. This obviously kills the functionality of the script mounting all your network file systems in fstab at startup but if you're having this problem you're probably not using it.
I was working on a more elegant solution that would mount shares based on definitions in the network profile, but my school decided to implement cisco's clean access which more or less killed that idea. If you use it don't forget to rename it else it'll get over written next time initscripts are updated. /etc/rc.d/netfs.hacked: ====================================== #!/bin/bash . /etc/rc.conf . /etc/rc.d/functions case "$1" in start) add_daemon netfs ;; stop) stat_busy "Unmounting Network Filesystems" umount -a -t nfs,smbfs,codafs,cifs,shfs,fuse if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then stat_fail else rm_daemon netfs stat_done fi ;; restart) $0 stop sleep 1 $0 start ;; *) echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" esac # vim: set ts=2 noet: ====================================== -- -andy [EMAIL PROTECTED] gpg key: http://home.comcast.net/~phydeaux37/phy_pub_key.txt _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
