I have a Solaris 9 x86 server (solx86) exporting a directory 'inet', with sub-directories 'dir1' and 'dir2'. The automount maps /home/dir1 to solx86:/inet/dir1 and /home/dir2 to solx86:/inet/dir2. When I do a 'ls /home/dir1' or 'ls /home/dir2' from any linux machine (redhat 8/9, current patches) the operation just hangs. I cannot even kill the 'ls' command. The tcpdump on linux and snoop on solx86 shows as follows: [tcpdump on linux] 14:14:34.070054 linux.228601490 > solx86.nfs: 172 readdir [|nfs] (DF) 14:14:56.470038 linux.228601490 > solx86.nfs: 172 readdir [|nfs] (DF) 14:15:41.270035 linux.228601490 > solx86.nfs: 172 readdir [|nfs] (DF) [more similar lines] [snoop on solx86] linux -> solx86 NFS C READDIR3 FH=1F2E Cookie=0 for 4096 (retransmit) solx86 -> linux NFS R READDIR3 OK 57 entries (No more) [more similar lines] The same /home/dir1 and /home/dir2 works fine from any Solaris machine. Home directories exported from Solaris 7/x86 and Solaris 8/x86 also works fine from any Linux machine; only Solaris 9/x86 has the above problem. I can mount solx86:/inet on the linux machine without any problem. However an 'ls' on the mounted directory gives the same problem. Any suggestion? Thank you. *-------------------------------------------------------------------* |Narendra Mehta Email: Narendra.Mehta@sce.carleton.ca | |Computer Systems Manager Tel: (613) 520-5737 Fax: (613) 520-5727 | | | |Carleton University, Systems and Computer Engineering Department | |1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1S 5B6 | *-------------------------------------------------------------------* _______________________________________________ LinuxManagers mailing list - http://www.linuxmanagers.org submissions: LinuxManagers@linuxmanagers.org subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.linuxmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxmanagers
