Well, after auditing a little bit more with tcpdump I found out that the getattr() NFS calls from the client actually originate from konqueror in file mode. When I kill the process the getattr traffic apprently stops so maybe this was the cause for it. However, since this is not 100% proven yet, the auditing isn't over..
