I think it is the same as what happened to me. I had to reboot/unplug
my Linux client before the whole NFS network went down. I am using Intel
e100 driver on eepro100. But my Linux NFS severs have no problem with
that client.

Hi,

I reported the exact same thing with an IRIX server on Friday to this
list. I am glad that others are experiencing it too. Using version 2
made the troubles go away for me.

Time for a RH bugzilla entry or is there one?

Daryl

There are several. Some of the people reporting problems have verified
that they are present in 2.4.19-pre8 as well.
