I am running a mail server on a pc164 500mhz alpha with RedHat 5.2. It has two ethernet cards in it. The first is for frontend smtp and pop3 requests, the second is an NFS backend. All config files and spool reside on nfs mounts exported by a NetAppliance 230.
I decided to upgrade this machine to the new 2.2.2 kernel and installed all the nessisary suport software. On the surface this server seems to run fine, but after a short time I start to get the following errors:
nfs_revalidate_inode: control/rcpthosts getattr failed, ino=529984, error=-70 NFS: bad fh 000983c601cb11c9000000000008164001cb290d00000000000983c601cb11c9

It looks like this is caused by a stale filehandle, but I am not a kernel hacker and cannot locate the problem.
I have tried all of the ac patches with no success. This server processes about 10 - 20 requests at any given time with a load avg well bellow 1.
I have an identical server that receives identical load and is running 2.0.35 and redhat 5.2 with no troubles. I have searched many news groups and mailing list archives and have found no other reports of this problem. Does anyone have any clue what is going on here? I can provide whatever debugging info is nessisary.
