According to the man page mountd is meant to re-read the exports file when
it receives a new mount request...
This doesn't appear to be the case (reliably) with NIS netgroups.
Some machines, some of the time, will not re-read the nis netgroups until
the mountd is 'HUP'ed... this is kinda awkward when adding a new
machine...
Any ideas why this would happen?
Regards,
Jonathan
