Hi Eric,

I have an IRIX box running 6.5 with some old patches and a NFS server running 
FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE, but I don't experience your problem:

The problem with Linux was that their NFS implementation s*cks *ss.

Is that box running 6.5 or 6.2? Recent patches? My bet is that it's your IRIX 
box that it's acting funny. There have been some problems with nfs on  some 
versions of IRIX that they solved later with patches.
