     I have only recevied one reply from Lundberg Harald 
     <harald.lundberg@tekla.fi>.  Thank you very much for the suggestion.
     
     Suggested Solution:
     
     This is an NFS "bug" that the Solaris has "fixed", but most other 
     vendors 
     haven't. 
     On your solaris system, edit /etc/system: set nfs:nfs_shrinkreaddir=1
     
     and then reboot. You can skip the reboot by:
     # adb -kw /dev/ksyms /dev/mem
     physmem <whatever>
     nfs_shrinkreaddir/W 1
     nfs_shrinkreaddir:              0x0             =       0x1 ^D
     
     
     I have not tried it out this solution yet since the system was a 
     production system. The July 4th weekend is coming, I think I will be 
     able to bring down the system then.

     Original:
     
     To All Helpers:
     
     The OS is 4.3 ultrix running on 5000/240 DecSystem:
     
     The NFS file system is sharing with Sun Solaris 2.6 and from time to 
     time, the Sun server will report nfs file from the ultrix is not 
     responding. But it will then reconnect again.
     
     Could anyone tell me what the system is doing or what is wrong with 
     the system?
     
     TAI,
