did some testing with 2.4.4 CVS XFS in combination with CVS checkout of
Head. i guess that should be working, but it's not. once again our
system crashed and i had to reboot aour machine. i just can't switch our
servers to using xfs until i got a solution on this one. imagine users
trying to change acls on our server...

Try the most recent CVS of xfs. It's at 2.4.6-pre1 now which seems to do well in NFS serving btw. I just finished some tests with a linux server and linux/NCR MP-RAS clients.

Impressive! Our 3Com 3300 Switch was reading 99/100 procent usage :-)


by the way, the server doesn't crash every time. gotta do some more
testing to tell the cause, but our test server is kind of broken right
now.

Dump some errors in the mailing list and maybe we can figure out what's going wrong.

Cheers
