- I just happen to have the opposite situation and I'm also experiencing some
- problems:
-
- First, even when "NFSing" between a Sun and a SGI, performance really seems to
- be low. Is there a common cure like reducing wsize/rsize ?
-
- When I unpack a tar archive from a different host (so that the uid/gids don't
- match), the AIX tar refuses to *write* the files on the SGI server. It creates
- an empty file (0 bytes) with uid/gid of the archive (and not my uid/gid) and
- than fails to write the contents. This only happens on the SGI server, on a
- Sun, all is ok. Weird. There are no options in the /etc/exports file.
-
- Besides, networking with the Indigo somehow seems "bumpy", suddenly the rlogin
- gets stuck for a second or two, vi can't cope with fast changes of cursor
- up/down, etc. Is there some way to "tune" our new Indigos a bit ??
