I must say that I'm surprised that an FC2 NFS failure isn't getting much play
on this list. For me, reliable NFS is a absolute requirement. I can
understand that a "typical" single-box user could care less, but surely some
folks out there must depend on reliable networking.
Are any folks on this list using FC2 and NFS successfully?

I'm mounting via NFS a directory on a RH9 server read only with no
problems, and a directory on a FreeBSD-Current server read write with no
problems.
