Subj:	DEC MLS+ crashes while being an NFS server

Barbara, 
 
Our machine croaked, and upon checking the crash dump, it looks like there 
might be a problem when the MLS+ is perfoming NFS services.  Since we need 
to use NFS, and our (your) customers may also need to use NFS, can we get 
someone over there to look in this? 
 
Thanks, 
 
	-Chris

Barbara, 
 
I found out some more information which may help you to reproduce the  
problem.   The machine which crashed and was acting as the NFS server, 
had the latest patches installed (pl9, plus your tnsmm_socket.o).  The 
machine acting as the client is a "MLS+ T4.0-1  (Rev. 26MLS)"  
machine.   
 
Apparently someone unmounted the underlying disk of the exported filesystem 
then remouted it while the client was trying to access those files. 
Since NFS is a stateless protocol, this should have only caused a  
momentary loss of service to the client. 
 
Just a reminder, it was the server, the 3.1A machine which crashed. 
 
Thanks, 
 
	-Chris
