time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
We use automounter to access the nfs-exported directory's. This works very fine between our offices in Belgium, the ISDN-line opens fast enough. BUT with the remote office in France the first attempt allways fails due to the long(er) connect-time. If the first attempt fails, we must wait 30 seconds and then the second attempt is successfull.
I have diagnosed the situation and it points to the fact that the line isn't initialised fast enough (international connection).
Can we change the AUTOMOUNTER / NFS configuartion it takes longer before we have the time-out ?

Re: time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
Increase the following: retry, retrans and timeo values. Your MountoType option should be hard.
These values are modified from the NFS Advanced Options on the client.

Re: time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
information for the mount options can be found at:
man mount_nfs
The options useful for you would be:
-timeo=#,retry=#
Have a look at your /etc/auto_master and referred files.

Re: time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
/net -hosts -soft
This is read by the automounter-daemon.
Where can I now add these new parameters timeo and retry ?
Do I have to specify this on the line in the "/etc/auto_master"-file and in which syntax ?
Can anyone help me ?

Re: time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
options can be inserted with ie:
/net -hosts -soft,timeo=10,retry=3
After changes in /etc/auto_master reinitialize with: automount (for new automountd)
or for old automount:
/sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop
/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start

Re: time-out problem with NFS/ AUTOMOUNTER
You can make the changes through SAM
SAM->Networking And Communications->Networked File System->Mounted Remote File Systems.
Highlight the mounted file and from Action menu ->Modify->NFS Advanced Options. You can change/increase the values as recommened. (retry 3, timeo 10)
