Date: 8 Jul 1993 09:03:19 GMT Organization: Univ. of London, Royal Holloway College. Lines: 27 Distribution: world Message-ID: <21gnsn$26s@sun.rhbnc.ac.uk> NNTP-Posting-Host: cad3.cs.rhbnc.ac.uk Hi. I am having a spot of bother setting up 386bsd on a network. I have the 0.2.2 patchkit installed. I have a 486/DX2 at 33 (66?) Mhz which I am trying to use on ethernet as a server, with an nfs card configured as ne0. When my other (386Dx 40Mhz) machine tries to use NFS off this machine, the nfs-udp daemon becomes very cpu hungry. ps -aux (eventually) reports 556% cpu usage. Obviously this degrades performance a tad. (5 mins to log on, or worse). I can FTP large files from one machine to another, and telnet from one machine to another. Ping reports no problems, so I assume it is just NFS. Is there a patch? Is anyone working on this? Or have I done something silly?
