Hi,

I have a bit of a NFS problem. I have a server A, and a client B. server A
is running Solaris 8, and client B is running Solaris 2.6.

Server A exports:
/export/old

and client B accesses it as
/net/A/export/old

Now, I add a new filesystem to A as
/export/new
and share it as appropriate

but when I try to access from client B
/net/A/export/new
I get:
/net/A/export/new: No such file or directory

However, I have no problem mounting it through the mount command.

Is there any way, short of rebooting, to signal to B that /net/A/export/new is
actually available ? I tried "/etc/init.d/autofs stop/start", but there are
processes on B that continuously use /net/A/export/old, and stopping them is a
pain...

Any trick to get me out of the noose ?

TIA,
                                        Christian
