Hi, I am running an opensuse 12.3 client on a network with CentOS 5 fileservers and I have noticed something that worries me. If I mount an exported directory from a CentOS 5 server the mount succeed, but after 30-45 seconds on the server this message appears in /var/log/message: kernel: nfs4_cb: server <opensuse client ip> not responding, timed out The mount command is: mount :/remote_dir /local_dir The timeout message does not appear if I run the mount command like this: mount -o nfsvers=3 :/remote_dir /local_dir But if I add the option nfsvers=3 in /etc/auto.master and automount the remote directory, the timeout message still appears. Does anybody have a clue about what is going on? Should I be worried about the message? Can this affect the server performance (if there are many of this mount requests)? Is there a way for the opensuse client using the automounter to not make the message appear in the server log? This happens also with opensuse 12.2 if it is updated to a recent kernel. Can this be considered a regression in newer kernel or could it be a bug of the CentOS kernel?
