NFS stops responding

[Tom Buskey]

 I think you said it's all linux, client + server.
Are the netmasks the same?  I've seen one way networking with mismatches.

FWIW I've found Linux NFSv4 doesn't work well with Solaris v4.  I
force it to v3.

HP-UX 11 misimplemented NFSv3 and it shows up if a Solaris server has
ZFS under it.  Forcing the client to v2 fixes that.
