I am running a Debian 2.0 on a i686. It functions as an NFS server to a number of other Debian i686 machines and a SPARC Solaris 2.5 machine. I think the SPARC is crashing the nfsd on the Debian server and it typically occurs when I copy very large files to the NFS FS from a local FS on the SPARC machine. Usually the situation can be solved by restarting /etc/init/netstd_nfs.
I have been in contact with other users who have this identical problem on identical machines. Typical log entries in the NFS server daemon.log: Jan 19 12:55:34 bermuda nfsd[4788]: strange write req from hawaii.ucd.ie: count 4294967295 len 4294967295 Jan 19 12:56:31 bermuda nfsd[6100]: non-standard errno: 14 (Bad address) I am using the following package versions: ii netbase 3.11-1 Basic TCP/IP networking binaries ii netstd 3.07-2hamm.2 Networking binaries and daemons for Linux Any help or advice would be appreciated.
