>Description:
When a filesystem is marked "noauto" in /etc/fstab
catbert# grep /transfer /etc/fstab
snert:/transfer /transfer nfs rw,noauto 0 0
it is not mounted at boot time. If later on, all nfs filesystems
shall be mounted, it can't be done with "mount -a":
catbert# df |grep trans
catbert# mount -a
catbert# !df
df | grep trans
catbert#
So, for every nfs file system you have to mount it by hand with
mount server:/fs /transfer
This is a pita with many filesystems. Umount does trt by the way.
Imho the semantics of -a in mount should be changed accordingly to the
one of umount.
