>Environment:
solander is a FreeBSD NFS server, using NFS v3. macauley is a DEC
Alpha running OSF3.2, accessing the FreeBSD disks.
>Description:
The Alpha doesn't see all the files. Listing directories on the NFS
mounted partition will typically only list about two thirds of the
files. Switching to NFS v2 cures the problem.
NFS v3 mounts from Linux and Sparc boxes appear to work fine on the
Alpha.
>How-To-Repeat:
Here's a transcript of a session on macauley (the OSF3.2 box), where ~
is my home directory NFS mounted from solander (the FreeBSD box).
