Has anyone seen this client error before?
RPC: TCP connect error 104!
I get it sometimes when I try to mount an NFS fs from my clients to linux
server. This also happens on an NFS read test I have. This does not happen
on UDP. All the clients eventually get what they want, but usually after a
couple minute delay.
The linux server is kernel 2.4.18 (with Neil's patches) and sometimes 2.5.7.
The clients (48 of them) are mostly just RH-2.4.2-2 and one is 2.5.7 (happens
on both kernels). There are no dropped packets reported on ifconfig. There
are RPC retransmits on the clients. Any ideas?

Thanks Bill! I tried 128 threads and it seems to be OK so far.
