Is the mounts on the AIX, HP-UX and Linux done also via TCP ? It might lead you to the fact that the mount over TCP just takes some more time to finish.
Just a suggestion, Eyal.
Why TCP by the way ? Did you check UDP ?

Hi!
I have a problem with automount on Solaris. The problem appears on both Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 8. On the first attempt to access any directory located on the filer the automount request times out but on the second attempt it mounts the directory. It takes 15 seconds to mount the directory. All other mounts after the first one has been mounted works fine. This behaviour appears everytime I try to access a directory after the automounter has released all mounts. Automount works just fine on AIX, HP-UX, Linux when accessing the same directories.
We use NFS version 3 and NFS over TCP is enabled on the filer. We have OnTap 5.3.6R2 installed on the filer.
Any suggestions?
The reason I have enabled NFS over TCP is that Solaris first tries this protocol. I have the same problem when using NFS over UDP.

you could always put "proto=udp" in your automount tables....then it will default to udp....that is, if you would like to use UDP.
