Greetings,

Here's one for you.

Having a situation where rdairplay on a client machine, meaning audio store
and mysql are not located locally, starts having dropouts of audio and
trouble connecting to the database. Many rivendell machines on this system
and this is the only one with the problem.

I tracked it down to this.

Machine network interface is totally overwhelmed from a windows traffic
machine which is attaching to a nfs share on the same box. This doesn't
happen all the time but when it does as you can imagine panic ensues.

If I shutdown the nfs-kernel server problem goes away. If I disconnect the
windows machine problem goes away.

So question is what is this windows box doing that is polling this share so
intensely that all other network traffic slows to a halt.

This connection is simply there so traffic logs and be sent over the network
to the rivendell machine. I have tried connecting to the windows box going
the other way using cifs but this too causes other issues.

For some reason this windows box and this linux box don't like each other.

Cheers
