>Description:

	When writing data form a power full SUN (>= SparcStation 5), the
	client repeatedly gets:

	> NFS server tin not responding still trying
	> NFS server tin ok

	and sometimes this message is followed by:


	> NFS lookup failed for server tin: error 9 (RPC: Program/version mismatch)
	> tar: Could not create file x  : I/O error

	The server is in no way loaded, this happens even when I am 
	the only one using NFS. 

	This NEVER happens between 2 FreeBSD machines.

	

>How-To-Repeat:

	f - FreeBSD NFS server
	s - Solaris 2.4-2.5 NFS client 

	s> mount -F nfs /mnt f:/dir
	s> cd /mnt 
	s> tar xf largeFile.tar 
	 
	

>Fix:
	
	Install solaris 2.5-i386 on the file servers :-<
