Same here... that's why we don't use NFS on Linux heavily in production. 
However once the server is backup and doing ok, a client reboot normally 
fixes things.

We use NFS on AIX and it works fine.  While the server is down you'll see 
"NFS server hostname DOWN" on the clients.  When it's back up, you see 
"NFS server hostname OK" and the world is wonderful again.
