Ok, there are two different problems here. The patch you posted to l-k is a generic NFS fix for 2.4.5. ext2 would need this too. If you are serving NFS from your reiserfs disk, you need an additional patch on the server only (this is the one I was talking about).

The problem only happens when the clients do an operation on a file that has gone out of cache on the server. Under light load, this might happen very rarely. You only need the patch on the server. -chris - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

You cannot use NFS on reiserfs unless you apply the knfsd patch. Look at www.namesys.com.
