OK, then that's not only a fix, but is more robust, since it doesn't
rely on DNS being and staying good.
You can put the "sync" in, and it is probably good form. However:
"In releases of nfs-utils up to and including 1.0.0, this option was the
default. In all releases after 1.0.0, sync is the default, and async must
be explicitly requested if needed. To help make system administrators
aware of this change, 'exportfs' will issue a warning if neither sync nor async
is specified."
So if a "sudo exportfs -r" does issue the warning, then "sync" ought to
be optional, due to the default behaviour.
(Yeah, I know, it's cheap insurance to just chuck it in.)

Now that's good to hear. While fixing up DNS could be an interesting
exercise, that doesn't make any swarf, or empty out the aircon drip tray,
I figure.
