Actually, the first thing I did was put the line in
fstab. Curiously, it
would not mount the shared folder at boot time, but after it was booted,
I could mount it with 'mount -a'. I thought maybe fstab was being read
before the ethernet connection was established.
But, I didn't pursue this because the remote folder is not always
available at bot time. Depends on which computer is booted first. So I
still needed to mount it later, which I do have now.
fstab doesnt necessary means boot time :)
You cant put something like this in it
192.168.1.254:/nas /mnt/nas nfs4
rw,hard,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,relatime,user,noauto 0 0
it wont try to connect at boot time and you will be able to mount it as
user with a simple "mount /mnt/nas" without the need of sudo and passwords.
The autofs looks like it might be helpful. Thank you for mentioning it.
