thanks!

do you perhaps also have a solution for hanging accesses to network mounts when the server is inaccessible?

    Do you mean a hang on boot when trying to mount? For that I use the nofail option in fstab. I also use the x-systemd.automount option so if something is not mounted for whatever reason, it tries to mount it when something attempts to access it.

    no, I mean the system has been up for a long time, but the server went down, and connection was lost

    That's all handled with adding the x-systemd.automount option to my fstab entry. If it disconnects it's unmounted, when it's available again it mounts when something tries to access it.

    I have occasionally needed to restart some services if they didn't like getting disconnected, but as far as mounting goes it's handled pretty smoothly with that option.
