Might that cause this too:

May 5 15:32:10 fileserver kernel: lockd: can't encode arguments: 5
May 5 15:33:08 fileserver last message repeated 18 times
May 5 15:34:07 fileserver last message repeated 27 times

May 5 15:36:08 fileserver last message repeated 10 times

I have one system exporting a 112GB reiserfs partition and I've tested it
with two kernels:

2.4.20-rmap15e
2.4.21-rc1-rmap15g

2.4.21-rc1-rmap15g is giving the above error, and 2.4.20-rmap15e is not.
I'll leave it on 2.4.20-rmap15e for now and let you know if there are any
errors on that one too.

I can include .config files too if needed.

Thanks,
