NFS disconnects periodically

[Ralf Gesel|ensetter <rgx@gmx.de>]

Hi there,

I got the feeling that our tjener is to blame for peridical hangs I 
observed at thin clients, and work stations. LTSPserver reports 
someting like: NFS not reachable (time-out) / NFS connected ok.

I suspect the nic could be the bottleneck; it's the intel chipset on the 
TX150 server board. The used driver module is named e100, but mii-tool 
doesn't cooperate with it. 

I plan to debug the reasons by means of nagios, Wenzel told me the 
initially set nagiosadmin password (!). Where is the documentation I 
failed to locate? 

Thanks for any further hints on how to corner the bug.
Regards
Ralf
