Replying to myself since i have news:
I changed the nfs mount option to switch back from tcp to udp, and got rid
of the "value too loarge" messages, but:
JukeBox:/home/varenet# find /exports/ > /tmp/test
find: memory exhausted
JukeBox:/home/varenet# wc -l /tmp/test
570 /tmp/test
So i can't really tell whether the "value too large" messages didn't show
because i switched to udp, or because not enough file where parsed. I'd go
for the latter, tho.
Unfortunately i can't mount the HD containing that much data on a PALinux
box, to tell whether that bug is network related (which seems likely to
me), or if that's something else.
HTH anyway
