Hello,

  I'm now up running NetBSD/sparc on my SS5 virtually all of the time.  Things
are working quite well.  I do have one problem.  NFS.


  Here is the situation:  I have 4 machines, A (sparc/solaris), F (sparc/NetBSD),
N (i486/NetBSD) and P (i486/NetBSD).

  A and N export some file systems via NFS.  A exports /export/opt and N exports
/usr/src.  

  From P I can mount both exported file systems with no problems:

     mount -t nfs A:/export/opt /mnt
     mount -t nfs N:/usr/src /mnt1

  From F (NetBSD/sparc) I have the following:

     mount -t nfs A:/export/opt /mnt       ----  works just fine.

     mount -t nfs N:/usr/src /mnt1     

        This one hangs!  the mount command never terminates and when I
	^C mount, it leaves mount_nfs still running and in disk wait.

           6335 p2  DW     0:00.03 nfs n /mnt1 (mount_nfs)

  Does anyone have a clue as to why this happens?
