Thanks Joerg for your answer but NO, kill -HUP doesn't make new exported
partitions avalaible on the client if they are already mounted
partitions of the same NFS server. Remember that I am using 'host' map
type. With this kind of map, all the exported partitions of a host are
mounted at the same time if one is accessed.

If you have any other idea, I would be very grateful.	Gildas.
