Subject: TCP NFS to Novell does not work

Using kernel 2.4.26, I am unable to copy large files to novell over TCP
NFS. It copies part of the file, the I get a "stale NFS file handle" error.
I can then delete the file on novell over NFS without a problem. I do not
have this problem coping to a tru64 mount.

UDP works, but I get corruption in the file. Which I shouldn't get.

Are you using a remote NetWare server running the NFS Server NLM with
NFSv3 from Linux? Try compiling the kernel with NFSv3 disabled and use
NFSv2 instead.
