NFS Problem

[MrZammler]

I'm using an exported share from my linux box (gentoo), and mount it on my Amiga.

Everything runs smooth, and although I can read fast and stable from the nfs share, I can't write to it. When I attempt a write, the target file gets created (which should indicate no permissions problem), but stays at 0 bytes. A few seconds later I get a RPC timeout on the Amiga.

I'm using OS3.9 and Genesis. I've tried most of the ch_nfsctl options (MAX_WRITEBUF, etc) but no luck...

When using the same setup under netbsd on the amiga, both reads and writes are ok.

Anyone got any ideas?

Recompile your whole gentoo, maybe it helps...

LOL! Nope, dont want to go through that again!

(Yes, that was a bad joke)

Actually, this solved it! (although of course I didnt recompile the whole thing) :-) Turns out there was a bug in kernel 2.6.6 I was using. With 2.6.10 I can finally write back to the nfs share.

But now, I have another problem. While I can do a copy from the amiga to the nfs share, if I cd to the nfs dir, ed a text file and save it, ch_nfsc gives me a 8000000B guru... (suspend resume).

Any ideas?
