I set up an NFS share on my Linux box at home, and could connect fine,
read/write files from my netbsd MobilePro, etc. Copying small files
seemed very quick (please note I'm using 802.11b, not wired network).
However, doing an ls on the directory that had 20-25 files in it, took
30-40 seconds before a response. I then attempted to copy a file of
about 100K from the NFS share to my MobilePro, and the MobilePro
apparently just locked up. No I/O on the Linux side at all after 1-2
minutes, and the MobilePro simply wouldn't respond. I had to reset the
system to get it back.
Are there known issues with NFS and MobilePros? Or some issue with NFS
and 802.11b?
