Mounting a partition at boot time from /etc/fstab

Mounting a partition at boot time from /etc/fstab

[Victor Sterpu]

I try to mount the /var partition at boot time.

I receive the following error at boot time:
statd: server localhost not responding, time out
lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.250.90
lockd: failed to monitor 192.168.250.90

This is my /etc/fstab :
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
192.168.250.90:/var/nfs/mail2.ambra.ro /var nfs defaults 0 0

When I do "mount 192.168.250.90:/var/nfs/mail2.ambra.ro /var" the 
partition is mounted succesfuly.
I use kernel 2.6.20 with nfs and automount support.

Haw can I mount this nfs partition at boot time?
Thank you.

Since the NFS file locking manager uses files in /var, you need to mount 
/var with the "nolock" mount option.  See nfs(5).
