It exports some volume via NFS (installed with RedHat 7.0 + custom 2.4.1 kernel) NFSD dies unexpectedly with a Oops (see below). At the beginning, I have 8 NFSD processes, but suddenly, they all die. I can't see why it happens, because the machine is a production one and I can't reboot it too often. But when I reboot, all is fine for a moment. And suddenly, the 8 NFSD die altogether... When running lsmod, nfsd.o has 8 locks even after NFSD died, so it's impossible to make a rmmod (the 8 NFSD processes don't give their ressources back). Anyone have similar problems? Thanks for any help on that topic Bye -jec PS: I'm not in the list, so CC please. ksymoops 2.4.0 on i686 2.4.1-acls0.7.5-3.
