Given the mounts did work if I used the -v option from the command line, I experimented with adding the options shown in the verbose output to the fstab options.
If I add the proto=udp option "an incorrect mount option" error message goes away and the mount succeeds as before. n2:/db /db nfs auto,nfsvers=3,proto=udp 0 0 I tried the other options, and the ordering of the options, and found adding proto=udp was the option that made the error go away. As can be seen from the verbose output, in this instance I am trying to mount volumes on an older server that only supports NFS vers 3. -- mount.nfs fails stating incorrect mount option but succeeds if -v or with 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
