| |
I'm afraid I can still reproduce file corruption running NFS from a 2.2.0pre4 client to a SunOS 5.5.1 server. The good news is that is basically fails on _every_ test trial and it fails with a small set of files. (My failure occurs doing an 'ld' over NFS).
Note that this problem does not occur between Linux boxes. I ran 1000's of iterations of the 'ld' command in question between three different Linux'en running 2.2.0pre3 and there were no errors.
I still have several suggestions from Bill Hawes on how to gather some data on this so I'll attempt to get some useful NFS debug logs before the end of the day today. (That's by 5pm USA EST). I'll send it to Bill Hawes and to the list.

P.S. I hate to drop this bomb so late in the process but I saw several posting's discussing NFS bug fixes and success with NFS so I thought the corruption problem was fixed. My testing this weekend was supposed to be a quick validation of the fixes...
