SubjectFIFO problem on ROOT NFS
<HTML>
I am porting an FullText database engine to Linux (Sparc) and have problems.

<P>On my sparc machine the entire file system is mounted NFS from a Linux
Intel&nbsp; box. (root=nfs)

<P>The first process create a fifo file on /tmp, then the child process
open the same file for reading.
<BR>Then it is mmap, and when both have the file open it is then unlink'ed.

<P>Now if that file is lying on the NFS,&nbsp; I get an nfs error and the
process die!
<BR>But if I move it to a physical disk I don't get this error.

<P>Is that normal?
<BR>If not I can send you the exact error message and probably some portion
of the related code.

<P>Andre
