Hi,
We also have a mixture of FreeBSD and Solaris servers, and I had a very bad
patch of this error occuring between our mailserver (FBSD) and our NFS machine
(Solaris). It turns out that we had a marginal ethernet cable, and replacing
it has reduced the occurrence of such errors to once every few days (which is
managable). The annoying thing was that the FreeBSD machine seemed to suffer
a lot more from the fault than other machines around our network.
I also found that NFSv2 rather than v3 seemed to work a bit better given the
dodgy connection.
