I ran a similar NFS setup couple years back when breaking my teeth with |
| 5 |
Gentoo. Had intermittent problems with the NFS locks, and speed was slow |
| 6 |
too, so gave up. Though, it might've been just me and my poor NFS setup |
| 7 |
"skills", or some settings in my kernel. From other people's comments |
| 8 |
and links I noticed they now have some helpful scripts. Wish I had seen |
| 9 |
them earlier or been able to type out some of my own. :) |

I switched the server over to providing local Gentoo rsync mirroring for |
| 12 |
the LAN instead: |

I combine this with Squid (proxy) and a few gigs of proxy disk cache on |
| 17 |
the server end to have the server perform as a complete buffer/cache |
| 18 |
between my LAN boxen and the external Interweb world. And it doubles as |
| 19 |
the proxy for "regular" browsing, too. |

HTH. YMMV. HAND. |
