really?? is that new for 7.2? I seem to recall (might be foggy) having 
some 6.2 and/or 7.0 boxes that were mounting from fstab, although it may 
have been that i was mounting them from rc.local and just forgot...

thanks for the response. <aside> any idea why they would disable 
mount-at-boot, i see the 'network hangs' but can't/shouldn't that be 
gotten around by options/coding? Solaris has had this feature forever, 
and while it occasionally causes [EMAIL PROTECTED], it's manageable. Just 
curious.
