Hi List Users,
Running fc4.
When the system boots, during the INIT phase, it pauses for about 1
minute at "Starting NFS statd". I have other fc4 boxes where this
doesn't happen. I turn off everything I don't want/need using chkconfig
and so may have inadvertantly turned off something necessary. I'm
pretty sure it's not dns related (those delays are 26 seconds).
I've chased it into init.d/nfslock. Further investigation shows that
the delay is actually happening when that script invokes "daemon
rpc.statd". rpc.statd is a binary so I can't follow it further.
Checking the man page for statd says sometimes this happens when there
is no hostname so I added the hostname into /etc/hostname with no
apparent effect.
Has anyone experienced this and can share some insight?
Thanks for any help!
Mike Wright :m)
