The Mac is the nfs server. When I transfer from the PC to the Mac it's all right. When I transfer a large file (50-100MB) from the Mac to the PC often the connection breaks completely. I can't ping the other machine anymore. Looking at ifconfig I see that the PC receives the pings but it does not answer. I have to bring the PC's eth0 down and up to get it working again. Large ping floods don't trigger the problem. And is it normal that I transfer at only ~5MB/s over a 100Mbps ethernet ? The PC runs 2.2.17 and the Mac 2.2.18pre19.
