Hi folks-

My apologies if this is out there somewhere, but I've googled this to
death without finding a satisfactory answer.  I'm attempting to tar copy
a large repository (actually, the RHAS3.0 iso images) from a Linux NFS
server to a Solaris NFS client.  At various intervals, the transfer
invariably dies with a "file not found" error.  The cause of this error
can be explained by the sudden disappearance of directories in the
top-level of the exported share.

Remounting the share causes the directories (and everything recursive
therein) to reappear, but the problem reoccurs the next time I try the
transfer.  I've tried a number of different flags, up to and including
all of the following:

vers=2,proto=udp,ro,noac

Unfortunately, there's been no effect.  Has anyone run into this?  Is it
a known incompatibility between NFS implementations?  The problem is
easily reproducible.  The server is running Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1
Update 2 on a DL380.  The client is running Solaris 8 on an E250.  Both
servers, while on separate VLANs, are in the same general networking
"vicinity".  Any ideas/solutions will be greatly appreciated.

TIA,
