(In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #33)

No worries.

Keep in mind that rpc.umntall(8) doesn't unmount anything - it only notifies
the NFS server of an unmounted NFS file system.

Couple other points:

- popen(rpc.umntall) is only called after a successful unmount(2)
- rpc.umntall -k only notifies the NFS server of an unmounted NFS file system
  when the NFS entry is found in the mounttab and is no longer mounted.
