Subject: mp3 problems on nfs mount

summary: can't play mp3 files on nfs mounted partition. the music starts
to play and then hangs after about 5 seconds. using xmms on the nfs
client.

leeloo (2.2.17) is the NFS server:

[root@leeloo /root]# exportfs
/usr/local/mp3 rush

rush (2.4.10-test10) is the NFS client:

[root@rush mp3]# mount -t nfs
192.168.1.50:/usr/local/mp3 on /mnt/mp3 type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.50)

i've tried mounting with different rsize,wsize values, but no luck. i've
also tried mounting via SMB and have the same problems.

any ideas?

I don't have the asnwer to your particular problem,
but I can provide a data point:

I play mp3s regularly from an nfs server running 2.4.0.testx
(currently test11-pre5), with client also running 2.4.0-testx.

The mp3 directory is automounted on demand. xmms
plays these nfs-mounted mp3s for hours with no problem.

This same nfs server takes backups via tarfiles on nfs
exported volumes to a mixed bag of 2.2 and 2.4 clients.

The server is of course running the kernel-based nfsd,
and HJ Lu's nfs-utils package. (currently 0.2.1-1)

Regards,

jjs
