Hello, I recently had a problem with an NFS server running:
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0 It suddenly was not reachable from the network. A closer look on the console revealed that the interface was still marked as "active" and the server was able to ping itself, but not the gateway. While in this state, I was not able to ssh to the client machines that use mount points on the NFS server in question. To solve this problem, i plugged out the network cable and plugged it back in. This server has been online for almost a year and never experienced this problem till now. I'm wondering 2 things. a.) Could this be an issue with the driver on this release for em0? b.) Why was I not able to ssh to the client servers while the NFS server was down? Any clues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Carlos. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
