It gets worse than that! It would seem that /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh is not completing execution, hanging somewhere after evaluating /etc/mtab for nfs/cifs mounts, but before the variable $DIRS itself can be evaluated and acted upon! I ended up taking matters into my own hands and modified umountnfs.sh by adding a line to explicitly unmount my network share, immediately after the mtab evaluation, as so:
exec 9<&0 </etc/mtab umount //192.168.1.100/MyNET\ Shares/ DIRS="" As a result, shutdown only takes a few seconds and no longer hangs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/768506 Title: CIFS VFS Server is slowing down shutdown -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
