nfs mount a device file

[mike_586]

Hello to everybody.
I accidentlly mount (by fault) the device file name of an nfs_server -instead the file system , to the nfs_client mount point .
Now the system cannot umount the file system (device file name), and seems not to work properly.
I get this message:
nfs umount: nfs_unmount: /MIKE: not mounted
Can anybody help with an advice

Mixales,

You can try to fool the nfs server/client and export a directory with the same device-file-name.

Otherwise I'm afraid you have to reboot your client.

Hope it helps,
Robert-Jan.

If you need clean setup, rebooting would be good idea...

OK , reboot seems to be unavoidable.

Thanks for the help
