List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Archive: We are stuck on a problem that no one seems to be able to answer, even RedHat. We noticed this problem when we tried deploying RHEW 3 Update 1 in a production environment. The problem can be reproduced in the following test environment: 1 HPUX 11.22 NFS Server 1 RHAW 2.1 IA64 System 2 RHEW 3 Update 1 IA64 Systems. All systems are setup with no firewall settings. Here are the scenarios: Scenario 1: The RHAW 2.1 system can properly mount and access the HPUX NFS system Scenario 2: The RHEW 3 system can properly mount the HPUX system but when you try to do any access on the mounted nfs share, it hangs and the messages file on the client state that the NFS server doesn't. We have noticed that the client DOES get the nfs filehandle. Scenario 3: The RHEW 3 System can properly mount the RHAW 2.1(setup as an nfs server) but when you try to do any access on the mounted nfs share, it hangs and the messages file on the client states that the NFS server doesn't respond. We have noticed that the client DOES get the nfs filehandle. Scenario 4: The RHEW 3 system can properly mount and access the other RHEW 3(setup as an nfs server) This is extremely wierd. it appears that the only thing that a RHEW 3 update 1 system can mount is another RHEW 3 update 1 system. We have looked it over and every time we mount other types of nfs servers, we receive a file handle but it looks like it fails in the data connection. Any help would be appreciated. We have submitted a bug report to RedHat concerning this, but have not received any updates in a long time.
