Hello folks, our software solution uses libnfs-4.0.0 on Windows clients. It fails to mount certain shares that sit on a Linux server. The same shares exhibit the problem with near 100% frequency, although they do successfully mount once in a while. We are able to mount these same shares using the command-line on Linux clients with no problems. We updated the libnfs library to 5.0.2 and the issue persists. Any ideas what could be going here? Thanks in advance!

Hi folks! I admit I'm bumping this. Has anyone seen the problem as described in my first comment? Thanks.

I would suggest you to collect packet capture and see what's going on, what is causing the mount to fail. Based on that, then you may want to look at libnfs logs if the packet capture suggests client issue.

Thanks for the suggestion. We will give that a try.
