     Sorry for my bad report! I thought you would look at what the 
original reporter said, which is that if that directory exists at boot, 
then NFS refuses to mount anything, leading to an unusable system in 
some cases, and also a reboot doesn't fix it, so, someone must go and 
remove that directory for NFS mounts to work again.
     I looked at the changelog of nfs-utils package up to and including 
2010 (using 
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/n/nfs-utils/nfs-utils_1.2.5-3/changelog) 
and didn't found anything about this.

     Thats true, but also maybe a patch for Squeeze could be done to 
support stable users.

     Thanks a lot!!!
     Have a great day!!!
