Well, I am using r/w NFS over TCP (IPv4) for /home. The server is
FreeBSD/i386 RELENG_4 and the client is FreeBSD/sparc64 RELENG_5.
I tried to copy an ISO image:
hrs at sparc64 % mount -v | grep /home
home-v4:/home on /home (nfs)
hrs at sparc64 % cd /home/hrs
hrs at sparc64 % ls -al 5.4-RELEASE-sparc64-disc2.iso
-rw-rw-r-- 1 hrs hrs 666693632 May 9 09:06 5.4-RELEASE-sparc64-disc2.iso
hrs at sparc64 % mkdir subdir
hrs at sparc64 % cp 5.4-RELEASE-sparc64-disc2.iso subdir
hrs at sparc64 % ls -al subdir/
total 651248
-rw-rw-r-- 1 hrs hrs 666693632 Jun 11 17:20 5.4-RELEASE-sparc64-disc2.iso
hrs at sparc64 %
Just a report ;)
