I'm stumped here, could I get some help?

I'm trying to do an NFS mount of a directory on a 3.0 machine onto another
machine that's running 2.2.1, for the purpose of transferring /usr/src.  I
can mount the 3.0 machine's /usr/src onto my (current) machine and
transfer files with no problem.  When I do the mount onto the 2.2.1
machine, the first ls works, then everything afterwards fails, and hangs.
I have tried, as a test, just to transfer the Makefile into another
directory, here's the ps from it:

  207  p1  D      0:00.01 cp /usr/src/Makefile

I don't understand the "D" status.  All the nfsd and nfsiod's are running,
as is portmap and mountd, on both machines.  Since I can successfully
mount and tranfer files from the source machine to my own, I think maybe
it's in the target machine (the 2.2.1 machine) that has the trouble, but I
can't guess what it is.  Can you?

I've tried this several times, and done some reboot cycles that seemed to
work just fine.  I'm willing to do some experimentation ...
