Hi,

I have a PPro SMP running Linux 2.1.106 as my NFS server with the
kernel nfsd. I have 2 clients, linux/alpha running linux 2.1.111
and Linux/Pentium running linix 2.1.106. I am keeping getting the
kernel message

nfs: server ocean not responding, timed out
RPC: task timed out

from both of my clients when I compile glibc with source on the
NFS server and build directory on the local disk. When this happens,
my build will stop with I/O error. When this happens, my server
has almost nothing else running. I can access those source files in
question in my shell on my clients. My network is working normally.
It happens with the userland nfsd or kernel nfsd running on my server.
I was wondering if there was a kernel nfs or rpc bug which lead to my
problem.

Thanks.
