I'm mount /home off of a box via NFS. So far, it seems to be working but having a few issues.

On www (192.168.10.38) /var/log/messages I see this sometimes:

Oct  3 00:45:00 www kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.10.50

(at around 01:00, the box "clutter" locked up solid.)

On clutter (192.168.10.50) I see this sometimes:

Oct  3 11:31:11 clutter rpc.mountd: dump request from 192.168.10.50

DNS is ok, both A and PTR records are accurate.

I am *not* using tcp wrappers, so I don't have an /etc/hosts.allow or /etc/hosts.deny

'showmount' shows me this, though..

clutter home # showmount
Hosts on clutter:
192.168.0.2
192.168.0.3

dhcp170.pbp.net
dhcp179.pbp.net
dhcp183.pbp.net
www.pbp.net
clutter home #

Only 'www.pbp.net' is actually mounting it at this time. Its IP is 192.168.10.38. The others in the list have mounted it in the past, but not for months. I don't know why they're showing up there at all.

The /etc/exports on clutter (the NFS server) is this:

/home   192.168.10.38(rw,async)

The /etc/fstab entry on www (the web server) is this:

clutter.pbp.net:/home   /home           nfs             rw,hard,async   0 0

the NFS box seems to be ok on resources.

clutter home # free -m

The thing I'm most concerned about are the messages that I noted above. I searched the forums and didn't see anything, and Google brought up some Debian list posts but no actual solutions or further information.

Anyone seen these before?
