NFS server XXXXXX not responding still trying




Hi,

We have a dec4000 and dec3000-500 machine. We have NFS mounted a dec4000 
file system on dec3000 machine. /etc/fstab entry for this mount is

dec4000:/usr1 /mnt nfs 
rw,bg,hard,intr,retry=6,retrans=14,wsize=1024,rsize=1024,timeo=32 0 0

The /usr1 file system on dec4000 is exported in /etc/exports file.

The problem is, whenver I do any simple I/O operations on this file system,
for example
    find /mnt -print | cpio -ocv >/dev/null
I get error messages on the console and the I/O takes lot of time.

    NFS server dec4000 not responding still trying
    NFS server dec4000 ok
    NFS server dec4000 not responding still trying

The remote server(dec4000) has 128MB memory and the local machine (dec3000)
has 64MB memory. Not many users are logged on to these machines.

Has anyone had encountered this problem. Any help or pointers would be
highly appreciated.
