F14 problem mounting NFS file system
 

Hi --

I have recently installed F14 (2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64) under
VMware 6.5. (The host is F10.) I have a couple mounts from
NFS servers, all of which seem pretty unremarkable and which
work without problem on other VMs.

Mounting the NFS file systems seems to work correctly, without
any errors. When I try to "cd" into the mount point, or run
"ls <mount point>" the command freezes until killed.

There's nothing in /var/log/messages to give any clue about
what is happening.

Anyone have any ideas?

Resolved: The NIC in the VM was configured with jumbo frames
(MTU=9000), as was the server. When I reset this to the
default (MTU=1500), I'm able to see the mounted file systems.
