hi,

i build up a diskless-system  using etherboot and root on an nfs-share. both
systems are redhat9 with 2.4.20 kernels.

so far everything works well now but strangely the nfs-server tends to lock
up out of the blue. this is not reconstructable and just happens sooner or
later.

since it always locks up the entire machine(!) i can't get any error-message
and slowly i am a little desperate here..

i don't use any automouter and my /etc/exports file only contains:

tftpboot/gate01 192.168.1.20(rw,no_root_squash)

i can reboot the server and the client starts working again the second the
nfs-share is available again, so the client-side seems to be ok.

sorry for coming up with such little info  :(
hopefully anybody has an idea..

my regards
/jc
