Hi there,

I've encountered what I believe is a timing problem in mountnfs.

It does not seem to give enough time between bringing up the network 
interface and attempting NFS mounts.

I'm referring to /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs

I solved this by inserting some sleeps.

I'd file a bug report but I don't believe that I'm qualified; I found my 
solution by trial and error and theres probably a 'right' way to do this 
that you have provided... and which I've been unable to figure out.

confidential nor private nor secure and can be read by many other people 
than the intended recipient. A postcard can be read by anyone at the mail 
sorting office and expecting what is written on it to be private and secret 
is not realistic. Please hold no higher expectation of email.

If you need to send confidential information in an email you need to use 
encryption. PGP is Pretty good for this.
