Thanks for your reply, but I have to use 6.2 with that
kernel for my specific application. It short it seems the
system works till I replace the hostname/machine. Also the
clients are a mix of Redhat 6.2/7.2 with 2.2.14-6.0.1/
2.4.9-31 respectively.

That kernel is utterly ancient.  At the very least you should upgrade to the

newer errata that were released for 6.2 to fix security issues in the kernel

and userland, but preferably you should just replace the box with one
running 
7.3, as 6.2 is pretty much end of life.  Numerous bugs in NFS, reiserfs and 
the core kernel have been fixed since 2.2.14 was released almost 2 years
ago.
