SUMMARY: stale nfs mounts

The problem was fixed in the end by a reboot.



I tried to remove the entry from /etc/mnttab but to no avail. After the
reboot it came back up. I was fortunate I could take this machine offline
for a couple of minutes.

/file" and it comes back with no user. This was an autofs mount. I've tried
stopping autofs and trying to unmount but nothing. >The folder the share is
mounted on has changed to a file and anytime you try to open the file or
look at its attributes it comes back with "stale nfs mount"



>How can I delete this file?
