Take the 2-minute tour ×  I suspect that NFS make freeze my
workstation when the network access to the NFS server is cut.
What I mean by freeze: impossible to launch any application,
impossible to execute a command in a terminal previously open,
log gin in SSH are possible but it's not possible to execute any
command. However it's possible to log in root trough SSH and
execute command.  If I umount the NFS directory with  umount -f
/mnt/server/bin  I get the error:  umount2: Device or resource
busy umount.nfs: /mnt/server/bin busy  If I umount the NFS
directory with  umount -l /mnt/server/bin  after every thing
look to work fine.  The mounting command look like this:  mount
-tnfs server.com:/bin /mnt/server/bin  Other think to take into
consideration maybe is that I put this NFS directory in my PATH
for have access to some command.  Is somebody known where this
problem come from and how to fix it?  share|improve this
