Hi Gene!
I dropped NFS on linux ages ago, due to simillar issues as you
describe. Now I use SSHFS and haven't had any issues since then. So,
what about using SSHFS instead of NFS?

Never heard of it till now. So I installed it, along with sshmenu which
pulled in a dozen other rubyish packages.
Silly Q though, does mc understand sshfs? Or do I need to find a new 2
pane file manager that does understand it?
One thing's for sure, NFS, even V4 is old enough to have bit rot.
Thanks Nik. Off to read some man pages.

On the MC command line, do cd fish://user_name@machine_name
This makes one of your panels a virtual file system on the other machine.
There is also a fish kpart that you can use from konqueror in file browser
mode.
NFS these days is a hairball of epic proportions. Try getting the NFS
daemons to bind to a specific address per the man pages...

I use my local Linux User Group, full service.
My local linux user group. Chuckle. I am 1 of a group of 3. Not too
many linux users in these here parts. I am quite likely 100 miles
from the nearest "user group" that numbers 10 or more.
I use nfs on my local network, it just works so I
am far from an
expert. I export my "/home/<user>" dir and manually mount , cli,
on the clients.
Debian stable.
Debian Wheezy. With TDE.
