Comment on systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

  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 have a solution for hanging accesses to network mounts when the server is inaccessible?

      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
