Both client and server are -CURRENT. Server was fresh as of two days ago, and the client is a week or two old. They are connected via bfe (server) and vr (client). The server, I've found, will last much longer if the mount options on the client include 'tcp' and 'nfsv3' (supposed to be default, but I'm just calling it like it is). Reading files seems to be okay, and I've managed to get as far as compiling a kernel on an NFS-mounted /usr, but a buildworld will hang in < 30 minutes. The server is running dhcp and pf. All commands are being run as root. Kelley
