Hi, I'm having a problem with NFS here. I tried to set up my Sparcstation 5 as NFS server using Sarge with the kernel NFS server. Everything works fine as long as I don't copy anything to the NFS shares. I can copy files from the share, I can creates directories and files there, I can even copy small files to the share.
But when I try to copy a larger file to the share it completely hangs. A file with a length of 0 is created on the share, but no data is copied there. Worse yet, cp hangs. No Ctrl-C, no kill -9 can terminate it. And if I issue a ls to see if anything happens in that directory it also hangs in the same way. I have tried the 2.2 and 2.4 kernels, to no avail. The userspace server shows the same problems. I'm running another NFS server on a x86 box and this one works just fine. So I don't think it is a problem on the client side. I have no idea what's going wrong here, hopefully somebody here can give me a hint at where to look? Bye, Michael -- If there's anything more important than my ego around here, I want it caught and shot now!
