How is it with directory caching in standard nfs client for linux? Is it
existent at all? And if so, is there any way I can modify its timeout
values for spesific mountpoint? The reason I want to do this is since i
have several /tools and alike mountpoints wich regular users often has
references to in their PATH's, and these mountpoint seldom has any
changes to them, since it is mainly just a public way to reach common
tools for our developers.
It would be nice to eliminate the issue with extensive NFS directories
in path problem, without altering the existing PATH setting, since for
managment reasons it is much more easier to have most of the common
tools on a NFS volume than installed on each workstation.

For some types of software, yes. I would have disagreed until recently
(now that my site is moving away from that).
