[Bug 891825] Re: NFS client doesn't mount or mounts slow on startup on 11.10

[archer123]

I have just upgraded from 10.03 client to 12.04. I access a QNAP TS110
NAS using NFS. I had the same symptoms as described above, i.e. slow
mounting of nfs drives after logon which was not present on 10.04. The
problem was resolved by using nfsvers=3 in fstab.

The previous post written by Lem indicates that mpd may be the problem.
However on my system mpd is not installed so cannot be the primary cause
of the problem.

Title:
  NFS client doesn't mount or mounts slow on startup on 11.10

Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Here is the problem. I have a ubuntu server 10.04 and installed nfs-server.
  Every client I had till 11.10, would mount the folders at startup. Here is my fstab on Ubuntu 11.10 client:

  ubuntuserver:/media/huge /media/huge nfs rsize=16384,wsize=16384,rw,auto,nolock
  ubuntuserver:/media/externi-disk /media/externi-disk nfs rsize=16384,wsize=16384,rw,auto,nolock

  I have to wait for a minute till these directories get mounted. I have not changed any setup on 10.04 server, the previous 11.04 mounted the disks out of the box.
  The problem is that I have lot of setup files on my server, for example I have a link to pidgin, thunderbird etc. and on startup these programs can't get to their data. Network rises up fast on startup so that shouldn't be a problem.
