We are seeing a problem between our Sun 3/280 server and its clients after
reboots.  Basically, we get into a situation where nfsd eats the machine
alive, eventually causing it to crash due to dropped mbufs.  Rebooting the
clients helps but its not a feasible solution in many cases.  Has anyone
seen such problems before?  If not, I'll go through channels with Sun
later this week.
