Quoting "Andrew P. Lentvorski, Jr." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I believe that these two are both *false*.
I have managed Solaris systems accessing Solaris NFS and Netapp servers in which NFS handles mbox *just fine*. No corruption, no problems, no nothing.
You got lucky. We used to have problems all the time, several years back, where
programs like pine would hang forever on an fcntl call to lock a mail spool.
Turns out one fix was to change all our default mounts to udp instead of tcp..
and many are still left that way today. In fact, I basically helped blaze
ahead into changing back to tcp for those that wanted since linux performed
much better over tcp between computer rooms then it did using udp, and even udp
could be improved playing with rsize/wsize options.
Yes, I'm talking solaris clients btw.
