2.1.118 SMP still fails as 2.1.117 SMP did wrt client use
of NFS mounted homedirectories!
The test setup:
1) System A - linux 2.1.118 UP (NFS server, PPro200Mhz, 3c905 FD)
2) System B - linux 2.1.118 SMP mounting homes from A (dual
PPro200Mhz, 3c905 FD)
The test:
3) A user on B with a mail inbox directory of 200 Mb messages
runs 'Empty Trash Folder' in Netscape-4.5b1.
The result:
4) Linux crashes hard with no traces in the syslog and no message
to the console.
System B has been running SMP under 2.1.89 (and 2.1.117/118) serving 20
NFS-hosted
linux clients since 2.1.89 was released with no problems. Thus, probably
no hardware
problems.
Under UP, system B is rock solid relative the empty-trash-folder test
and is
currently humming along in UP-mode.
