I have a machine with a partitioned 660 meg disk. They are mounted as / and /users. I want to use nfs to mount all of my machines in /Net and I am having trouble with this one. Machine A has the 2 partitions. Machine B tries to mount the two partitions as /Net/A and /Net/A/users. This works fine if machine A is up and running, but if it backgrounds the mounts I have a race condition. If it mounts /Net/A/users first, then the mount of /Net/A fails. If the mounts happen in the oposite order then the both work. Is there anyway to correct this? I know I could fix it by changing the path point at which /users mounts to something like /Net/A.users but I like the uniform view of the net that the first way gives me.
