Hi, I think this 7-year-old bug affects my fresh and up-to-date install of Debian Wheezy. My CPU is a AMD Athlon XP 2200+, so I'm on i386-architecture, not amd64. I'm running wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager to connect to wireless, and made an /etc/fstab entry for a cifs network mount. On shutdown or reboot, the system hangs for a long time (probably five minutes) between: ... stopping enhanced syslogd: rsyslogd and CIFS VFS: Server bigbee.local has not responded in 300 seconds. Reconnecting... ... See links below to forum reports of other users running into this problem on Debian Wheezy and Ubuntu. Workarounds commonly suggested are: - Manually changing init-scripts or their priorities to ensure umounting before the network goes down, or - Avoiding the use of auto-mounted network shares, or - Using /etc/network/interfaces instead of NetworkManager. In 2011, Mike Perrin on the Ubuntu bug tracker suggested this problem had to be solved in NetworkManager, so he filed a bug report upstream. His report was marked duplicate at the time, but the original bug (that his report was a duplicate of) was fixed last month. The fix got included in the recently released NetworkManager 0.9.10: "The NetworkManager dispatcher got some enhancements too. It now has a “pre-up” event that allow scripts to execute before NetworkManager announces connectivity to applications. We also added a “pre-down” event that lets network filesystems flush data before the interface is actually disconnected from the network." - Dan Williams, NetworkManager developer, June 20, 2014. I see that unstable currently has a package for network-manager 0.9.10. I'm running stable here, so I cannot check if this solves the problem, but perhaps someone else can?
