[Bug 933575] [NEW] NFS not being mounted at boot time - rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Version: Ubuntu SERVER 11.04

installed nfs-commons

added this to /etc/fstab:

192.168.88.252:/repo  /mnt/repos   nfs     rw,hard,intr  0     0

but I also tried
192.168.88.252:/repo  /mnt/repos   nfs      _netdev,rw,hard,intr
192.168.88.252:/repo  /mnt/repos   nfs      defaults,_netdev,rw,hard,intr


with
mnt /mnt/repos

it works.

reboot.

I don't get the NFS up at boot time.

I access to the server with SSH, eth0 and network is fine
no NetworkManager
no gui

mount -a

it works...

so to debug the issue I added this to /etc/rc.local (before exit 0)

 mount /mnt/repos > /tmp/mounting.$$ 2>&1

rebooted and I got this in that file:


mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified


I can't get NFS being mounted at boot time.
