I am running 2.0.25 on 4 PCs and they are accessing over a gigabyte of
nfs from a dual sun sparc 20 running solaris 5.5 (plus some more from
another). I have no problems on the client side. There are some known
sun nfs problems.

I used to have some problems on the side of some of the linux servers
but that was due to an old version of zlibc (note the z) with new
libc's (5.4.7 nowadays).
