Subjecttar/nfs/floppy interaction with 2.1?
Date
From


I'm using 2.1 with the old style NFS (haven't changed anything).

It seems NFS writing may be flakey...

When I untar from a floppy disk onto an nfs mounted disk, I get
intermittent corruption of the data (both actual data and size).
When I untar onto local disk, I don't have the problem.

When I copy from local hard disk to nfs hard disk, I don't have a problem.


I'm using 2.1.36...(I also started to use the new tar recently...
so it took me a while to narrow this down).

It:
is tar version independent
only happens of nfs writes with 2.1
