Ok, I just wanted to be sure that we weren't turning soft mounts into hard mounts. The only problem though is that you have a weird failure mode now where the OS reports failure however it may later succeed, I think this is OK, esp if Solaris does it, but it is interesting. Seems OK, Thanks for clarifying! -Alfred _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
