This is still a big issue on WiFi-enabled workstations. To put it into perspective, we have upgraded from 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS and shutdown still takes around 40 minutes for the 16 cifs mounts in FSTAB on four workstations. Users are seriously inconvenienced.
As hinted earlier, a workaround could be adding the K14-links to rc0.d and rc6.d: ln -s /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh /etc/rc0.d/K14umountnfs.sh ln -s /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh /etc/rc6.d/K14umountnfs.sh and deleting the equivalent S31umountnfs.sh link. I see this as a stop-gap measure only until it has been fully tested and verified. However, as Max-Ulrich Farber also stated more than two years ago, the full ramifications of this are not clear as I do not have the test cases nor insight for that matter to determine that this does not adversely affect something else. Could someone please please take a look at this and have the issue resolved. This is not just an obscure technical issue but also affects the image that ordinary mortal users have of Ubuntu. -- Network is brought down before network filesystems are unmounted (CIFS timeout at shutdown) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
