I nfs mount various filesystems over openvpn. Modifying /etc/init.d/netmount to have openvpn as a dependency works nicely. But this isn't the way to do this. I think /etc/conf.d/vpnclientname should have an option like USE_FOR_NETMOUNTS=yes which will be read by netmount and added as a dependency. Reproducible: Always
Have you tried to define the additional dependency of netmount in /etc/rc.conf like `rc_netmount_need="openvpn"`? Which baselayout do you use? openrc?
I use openrc indeed. This fixes my issue indeed. It's a pretty darn hard to find feature though. Thanks for your suggestion.
Assigning this to the Authors of http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml for consideration.
Hello Doug, Hello Joshua, what do you think about adding a short section to the Baselayout Migration Guide pointing to this (key) feature of openrc? Michael
First, documentation bugs should be assigned to the GDP, never to an individual author listed on the guide. Second, can you please clarify exactly what you'd like to add, and to which section of the guide? Thanks.
