2.4.x: Bogus ARP packets containing NFS file data

2001-05-18 Thread Frank van Maarseveen
To recap: The machine is an NFSv3 client. The header of outgoing NFS UDP/IP packets is sometimes corrupted, such that network sniffers on unrelated systems report bogus ARP packets. AFAIK there is no data corruption on the file level because the request is no longer recognized by the NFS server.
