Would be to simple, wouldn't it? And I thought that the /dev/drum bug was fixed month ago? Removing and touching /dev/drum doesn't change anything at all. I still can do a ``tar -cf /dev/null /usr2 & tar -cf /dev/null /usr1'' where /usr1 and /usr2 are nfs-mounted and after a few seconds the controller will hang... ...and timeout with my code, and will be reset and the request will be restarted. -- Stefan (berry@max.IN-Berlin.DE)
