if you read the list archive, you will see that Trond always suggests to use 
tcp in situations like this. Some weeks ago there was a discussion on LKML 
about 2.6., udp and nfs, the final statement was, that one always should use 
tcp with 2.6. kernel versions (I still don't understand why, but my knowledge 
about network protocol design and kernel internal networking is probably too 
much limited to understand the reason ;) ).

Hope it helps,
	Bernd
