Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 as an NFS client ignores mount options

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

Mount options used to mount a share on a NFS client are copied over to subsequent mounts on the client from the same share.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5

  • The options that are specified are compatible with the NFS server.

  • More than one volume is being mounted from the same NFS server.

  • When the same mount is attempted under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (if possible), the new options are honoured.
