I am running Ubuntu 10.04 as an NFS 4 server and 10.04 as an NFS 4
client. I am able to mount NFS shares manually on the client eg.

# mount -t nfs4 -o proto=tcp,port=2049 nfs-server:/music
/home/user/Music

I am also able to mount shares on the client using

# mount -a (When there is an entry in fstab.)

However, the share is NOT mounted from boot when entered in fstab and
any attempts to mount it after a failed 'boot' attempt do not work. The
strange thing is that after booting with the mount point entered in
fstab '# mount' lists the mount point as being mounted but browsing that
directory shows it empty.

Here is some relevant config info...
--
Client, fstab entry:
NFS4Server:music           /home/user/Music       nfs4    _netdev,auto    0 0

/export             192.168.1.0/24(rw,fsid=0,insecure,no_subtree_check,async)
/export/music   192.168.1.0/24(rw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check,async)

This really is a bit of a show stopper for me so a fix or any temporary
work-a-rounds would be greatly appreciated.
