Hi Dan
 I have a post that is similiar, except that I AM using the intel 10/100 cards. 
The only way I could get my NFS mount to work under any sort of load was to use 
the mount hack of dropping the mtu size to under 1500. 
The machines are PentII 333 with an Abit MB adaptec SCSI and 2 Nic cards.

 Any clues as to what to look for to get rid of the hack would be great.


   Thanks

   Nicole
