The last time NFS was working, I had 2.4.19 and 2.5.53 clients on a 2.5.59 server, that was yesterday. I had experienced a slight problem with it last week when my 2.5.53 client was booted for first time on 2.5.5x, it was previously a 2.4 kernel. The server OOPSed repeatedly shortly after bootup in NFS stuff then it never happened again and was rock solid until today.
