Description of problem:
when i boot our server, nfs won't start if the network (internet) is
not reachable. When i restart the nfs-server without a
internet-connection, nfs starting needs 10 Minutes to get up, and no
client can mount the nfs share. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nfs-utils-1.0.6-7.EL

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. disconnect the internet connection
2. service nfs restart
3.
    

Actual Results:  I wait 10 Minutes, but the clients can't mount the
nfs-share

This is probably more of a DNS or NIS issue than
an NFS issue since NFS (and other system daemon) 
need to do name to ip address resolution. Please
reopen if this is not the case
