Thank you! I've been scouring the man pages looking for this but I cannot find any NFS-specific fstab mount options documented anywhere. The man page for mount(8) states: > The options specific to the various file system types are described > in the manual pages for those file systems' mount_XXX commands. I would thus expect this to be in the mount_nfs(8) man page but it doesn't seem to be there. Neither are soft and interruptible mounts. The flags are all documented as passed on the command line, but the abbreviations used in /etc/fstab are eluding me. Is it staring me in the face somewhere or is this a legit gap in the NFS man pages? Regards Lloyd
