Basically the first RH-7.3 kernels were >causing a DOS on a couple of Netapps w/ Gigabit connections. You didn't exactly need a NetApp for this. A RH 7.3 NFS client with a Solaris 2.6 NFSv3 server box and a switched, trunked 100 MBit network was very very sufficient. I have the mrtg printouts still on the wall in my office. 46 hours of solid 93 Mbits/sec of fragmented NFS packets chewing off traffic on its VLAN and dropping everything else out of the backbone trunks. Every service and their grandmothers died around here. :-) Ah, the joys of NFS. Regards Henning -- Dipl.-Inf. (Univ.) Henning P.
