[gentoo-user] [OT]nfs question

[ionut cucu]

Hi list!
I want to share my files in my lan with various files systems. I've
tried so far sshfs and now nfs but both have the following issue:
should the router/hub go down, or one of participants to my
inner-circle sharing buddies close their pc, neither of the rest can
enter home...we all have the nfs/sshfs mounted
in /home/user/otheruserdir. I tried restarting nfs/nfsmount nothing.
Umounting will not work because "umount.nfs: Server failed to unmount
'10.6.3.41:/home/cuci' umount2: Device or resource busy
umount.nfs: /home/iosz/temp: device is busy" --as an example. And lsof
gets stuck. Any ideas on how to avoid this?

Try to use Coda. It's designed keep on working when you disconnect.
However, I can't give you any support on it. I just know that it is
capable of doing so.

Use umount -l to avoid this.

perhaps the soft mount option for nfs could help
look in the man page
