Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.3.4-2.1


Dear maintainer,

here is what I see in journalctl (/users is a Kerberos NFS mount point):

Mar 28 09:55:57 file-info2 systemd[1]: Mounted /users.
Mar 28 09:55:57 file-info2 systemd[1]: Started /etc/rc.local Compatibility.
Mar 28 09:55:57 file-info2 systemd[1]: Reached target Remote File Systems.
[...]
Mar 28 09:56:26 file-info2 systemd-timesyncd[293]: Synchronized to time server 80.74.64.2:123 (2.debian.pool.ntp.or
Mar 28 09:56:26 file-info2 systemd[1]: Time has been changed

When mounting NFS shares with Kerberos, it is important that time is synchronized between server and clients.  In this case mounting succeeded because the time difference was acceptable.  But it may not always be the same (for instance if the client has no battery to maintain time when it is off).  

So how about ordering NFS mounts after time synchronization during boot ?
