Just a quick question, I have read many faqs about why an NFS share
would take forever to mount and they all suggest that there is a dns
problem when so i use the IP to avoid the possibility of that problem.

The entry in my exports file is 
/mnt/drive1 192.168.0.123/255.255.255.0(rw)


The entry in my 2nd machine (.123) fstab is..

192.168.0.221:/mnt/drive1  /mnt/nfs-share1 nfs
rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr

I also have tried just ... 

192.168.0.221:/mnt/drive1       /mnt/nfs-share1 nfs 




Im mounting 5 drives (it takes between 5 - 10 minutes) to mount all the
drives.


Is there something else I should be looking at? or doing? to get them to
mount quicker?

Any help would be great...

Thanks..

Charles.
