I have been having the darnedest time with a client machine connecting via NFS over wifi. I have a couple of machines, call them thing1 and thing2, that get their (Mandrake) rpm updates from a mirror machine. thing1 connects on a cable and it works perfectly. thing2 connects over 802.11b and my updates just stop and go nowhere. For that matter, when I try to ls the automounted over nfs directory, the ls goes nowhere (and doesn't recover gracefully at all --- it leaves a zombie process :-( ). Weirdly enough, thing2 CAN connect quite happily over ssh to the mirror. I can log in and work quite successfully. AFAICT there isn't any authentication failure, either --- syslog says that the mirror's authenticated an NFS connection from thing2. I was wondering -- could this be some kind of udp weirdness? seems like nfs is operating over UDP. Any suggestions (aside from the obvious "just shut up and go back to using ssh for your updates.")?
