Hi all!

I use LinuxPPC with a self-built 2.2.14pre9 kernel on several powerbooks.  If I
use the PB without connection to the network (and therefore without access to
the nameserver), nfs startup and shutdown will "hang" for a quite long time, and
I think this is due to the missing/unaccessible nameserver.  Is there a way to
lower this timeout?  I think changing /etc/host.conf and /etc/resolv.conf every
time is not the proper way...

Thanks, Albrecht.
