I've been trying to run my NFS server on 2.6 kernels for a while now.
My desktop and my Firewall are both 2.6 already and happy. My
fileserver though is giving me an ulcer.
I have nfs server compiled into the kernel and the client as a module.
I've tried both with and without NFSv4 (with NFSv3 definitely). No
matter what I try though my client machines keep getting stale
filehandles. I can cd ~ and do an "ls -la", if I get much more complex
and try something such as
cd ~/.spamassasin
ls -la
ls -la
I get the stale handles. Reverting back to 2.4 and all is well on the
same export and mount configs.
Thoughts?
:wq!

Hallo Robert,
you could search the archives for "NFS Problem" and "STALE", you
will probably find my post near end of September. The short solution:
Use "no_subtree_check" in /etc/exports like this:
/home \
tony.local.net(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
I think I have found a bug in the nfs server code that always
returns a failure on subtree checks. I described my findings in
a post to this list, but nobody answered.
