If you can provide more details on this, please do. Please tell me (
and anyone who has NFS problems) what kind of server you're using,
try to see with tcpdump what's happening on the wire, provide a ktrace,
etc.
But first of all: try the latest sup, a couple of NFS problems are fixed
in it, though I doubt that they were your problems.
Also.. does the client hang after a server reboot?
(followups to either current-users or just me if you have info I guess,
this is more than just a port-sparc issue).
