Hi,

FWIW, I found NFS to be very buggy before the 'feoktistov' version of
the OpenVZ patchset (introduced in linux-2.6 2.6.32-31);  since that
version I've had no problems of this nature, and I use nfs quite heavily
between OpenVZ containers.

The 'dyomin' version mentioned above was based on 2.6.32.22 which I
believe had some NFS issues not even specific to OpenVZ, such as
kernel.org BZ#24302, and another mentioned in Debian's changelog for
2.6.32-31.

Hope that helps,
Regards,
