Hi I have set up NFS mounted home directories on my machines. On my server machine I am using the kernel NFS server, and am running Debian woody. The nfs exports file looks like:
# /etc/exports: the access control list for filesystems which may be exported # to NFS clients. See exports(5). /home *.localdomain(rw,no_root_squash) On the client I am running Debian testing. The fstab file looks like: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy auto defaults,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 server1.localdomain:/home /home nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0 What happens quite often is that the application that i am using e.g X or bash lock up. The only way to fix the problem is to kill the applications or to restart the machine. If I restart the machine on restart i get the following sort of messages: nfs: task 419 can't get a request slot Please could somebody explain why this is happening? Is there any way of fixing it?
