Comment 30 for bug 1118447

I'm right now approx 300 kms away from my server and I notice, that the machine fails to boot.

Symptoms are:

Open ports on the server:
Not shown: 997 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
111/tcp open rpcbind
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
445/tcp open microsoft-ds
MAC Address: 50:E5:49:92:FB:3F (Giga-byte Technology Co.)

samba is up - and I can connect to the shares.

But trying to look up a directory on a NFS mounted share on the server reveals nothing which means that this machine is currently waiting for an NFS mount to be finished.

smb: \> dir
  . D 0 Tue Jun 19 14:27:16 2012
  .. D 0 Sat Jul 12 22:06:24 2014

                42459 blocks of size 16777216. 4075 blocks available
smb: \>

The NFS demon on the hanging machine is currently not running properly

showmount -e 192.168.186.199
clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered

and the NAS where the server gets its beforementioned share is currently up and running fine:

showmount -e 192.168.186.240

Export list for 192.168.186.240:
/Qweb
/Qusb
/Qrecordings
/Qmultimedia
/Qdownload
/Public

As the boot stage hangs in such an early stage there is no possibility for me to log on using ssh and I have to get remote hands (on a Sunday) to get things running again.

When the remote hands are available I'll post some additional information about this issue.
