What is the NFS server running?
Comment 2 Jens Remme 2001-07-16 14:30:38 UTC 
The NFS-Server runs on Redhat 7.0 System, with the standard NFS.
Comment 3 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-07-16 14:34:15 UTC 
Can't reproduce this - a lot of our 7.x machines are nfs-exporting to other 
7.xes...
In any case, the error message is coming from the nfs kernel module, 
reassigning.

cat /var/log/messages

This is the only message.

Hmm. What networkcard ?
Comment 6 Arjan van de Ven 2001-07-18 09:34:43 UTC 
Also, it could be the result of an attempt to do NFS v3, which older 7.0 kernels
didn't support. Does the mount succeed after all ? (eg the NFS v2 fallback)

Comment 8 Jens Remme 2001-07-18 10:35:16 UTC 
The mount succeed after all, but the error messages make work impossible.
Comment 9 Jens Remme 2001-11-05 12:56:25 UTC 
Hello to you,

now I try the Version Redhat-7.2 and the same error is happening.

Please help me!
Comment 10 Steve Dickson 2004-08-11 11:00:58 UTC 
This seems to be fixed in later kernels
