I have a wait-for-ping service that pings nas A, once it gets a successful response it tries to mount.

I lifted it from a time when I needed to ping my router because Debian had a network-online service bug. I adapted it to my nas because the network-online issue eventually got fixed and mounting my shares became the next biggest issue.

It seems like this person might have grabbed that same fix for what I eventually did because our files are...oddly almost exactly the same.

thanks!

do you perhaps also have a solution for hanging accesses to network mounts when the server is inaccessible?

[–] cenzorrll@piefed.ca 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Do you mean a hang on boot when trying to mount? For that I use the nofail option in fstab. I also use the x-systemd.automount option so if something is not mounted for whatever reason, it tries to mount it when something attempts to access it.

no, I mean the system has been up for a long time, but the server went down, and connection was lost
