NFS mounts after sleep problem.

I have been experiencing an intermittent problem with an NFS mount that doesn't always work after waking a sleeping G4. Most of the time the mount works after a sleep but sometimes the system log shows the following and never manages to remount. A reboot fixes the problem:

mount shows:

10.7.11.1:/home on /private/var/automount/home

and the mount is mounted with the following options:

-P (allow all ports, not just privileged)
-3 (NFS v3)
-r=32768
-w=32768 (read and write size)
-T (NFS over TCP)

Unfortunately the Linux server that holds the mount shows no errors and I would be surprised if there were a problem at that end since rebooting the Mac fixes the problem.

I am also curious as to whether the mac supports non-automounted/static mounts? Automount seems more effort than it is worth especially for mounts that should never expire.

Any clues greatfully received.

Hopefully that is the problem.
