Rick can come save me perhaps here ... Rick? You out there? :)

NFS in my limited experience doesn't fill me with confidence about its
robustness. I really don't think I'd want to see what happens when 40
machines have mounts on my NFS server and my server reboots
spontaneously and gets a new IP. What happens to all those existing
mounts? I'm skeptical about NFS handling this gracefully, but perhaps
someone with more experience and knowledge could fill us in on the
consequences.
