Occasionally, my nfs fileserver goes nuts. rpc.nfsd eats up 99% of one cpu's cycles and I can't mount, umount or do anything to an nfs system (the shell just hangs waiting for the server to do something).
I can kill rpc.nfsd on the server, but when I restart it, it just goes back to eating up a CPU worth of cycles and doing nothing.
I can usually reboot to fix it, but I want to know how I can fix the problem, not the symptoms.
The server is a dual PPro 200 running Debian unstable updated today.
edit: Rebooting didn't do anything this time around.
