[sclug] Gentoo - Slow network mount

[Scott Rixon]

Hi all...

When I try and mount a remote filesystem on my Gentoo box it takes
ages...

I have a directory on my box called /data01 and an export on a remote
box (greenflag) called /data01...

I issue the command 'mount -t nfs greenflag:/data01 /data01'

It then sits there for about 20mins and then mounts!! The other box is a
RedHat 7.2 and the mount was fine onto my RedHat 7.3 box..

Any ideas? I don't get any error messages so I don't know where to
start!! This is all done as root.

Help!

Scott
