<div>Yet on some other clients, everything is fine. All clients are running centos 6.3, too.<br></div><div>Is there a way (e.g. restarting some services) to get the above problems away instead of rebooting the clients?<br>
</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br>you could try umounting the stale mount points in the clients with the -l switch (lazy). It works most of the time, sometimes rebooting or resetting is necessary. Do not change dir to the mount point because then your client will not respond :-)<br>
