Hi, I am not sure, whether this is a kernel problem, but maybe somebody here can help me: In my network are 2 NFS servers; as far as I can tell, the servers function the way they should, all other machines can communicate with them with one exception: One machine can't read files via NFS. When I try to copy files from an NFS server, the directory structure is copied but the resulting files are empty. I get an error messages saying "IO error", the log files on either side don't mention any problem. Copying files in the other direction works without any problems. The machine is an old HP Netserver LH-Pro, the network connection is via ATM (Forerunner LE) and LANE. As far as I can tell, there are no general networking problems, everything else seems to work fine. I am currently using kernel version 2.4.4 and NFS-utils 0.3.1. With an ancient 2.2.13-based system that was running on that machine before - unfortunately, I can't go back to that again, the problem didn't arise. I tried several variations of the Kernel options (NFS-version ...) but without any difference. Does anybody have any idea, what might be going on here? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
