[svlug] Mounting drives

Hey all,

Just installed Xubuntu on my workstation here at 
the office, and copied the lines over from the old 
  /etc/fstab file to the new install:

192.168.0.100:/home 
/mnt/BSP_home           nfs     rw      0       0
192.168.0.101:/home 
/mnt/VP_home            nfs     rw      0       0
192.168.0.101:/usr 
/mnt/VP_usr             nfs     rw      0       0
192.168.0.101:/usr/local/projects 
/mnt/VP_projects        nfs     rw      0       0

But they are not mounting at boot, and mount -a 
runs for a very long time before finally mounting 
them.

If they are in fstab shouldn't they be mounted at 
boot?

Why does mount -a take so long to mount them?

I should say the two machines they are mounting 
are running FreeBSD 6.0.

Thanks
Skip
