I think the servers are all freebsd 2.2.6 or later (but not 3.<anything>). If they're doing version 2 NFS, then everything is quite fine. If they're setup to do version 3 NFS, then access from the sparcs (or irix, I forget) would regularly cause the freebsd servers to crash. I don't know if the version 3 NFS problems have been addressed in 3.0-current. Seems to me that someone (Terry Lambert?) had some patches which were an initial stab of fixing these problems, but I might be getting mixed up on that. --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or drosih@rpi.edu Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
