Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nfs-kernel-server

  I have verified this bug on both karmic and lucid on both the server
  and client:

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
  Release:	9.10

  nfs-common:
    Installed: 1:1.2.0-2ubuntu8

  nfs-kernel-server:
    Installed: 1:1.2.0-2ubuntu8

  portmap:
    Installed: 6.0-10ubuntu2

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Description:	Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  Release:	10.04

  nfs-common:
    Installed: 1:1.2.0-4ubuntu4

  nfs-kernel-server:
    Installed: 1:1.2.0-4ubuntu4

  portmap:
    Installed: 6.0.0-1ubuntu2

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Expected behavior:

  Copying large files from local directories to an nfs mounted directory
  should complete without error.

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Actual behavior:

  The system freezes while trying to copy large files from a local
  directory (e.g. /tmp) to an nfs mounted directory. This causes various
  things to fail to respond, ultimately resulting in a hard reboot and
  potential loss of data. When this occurs I am able to log into the box
  via ssh, but even sudo is unable to kill -9 the wayward file copy or
  reboot the machine gracefully.

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Details:

  The server exports several directories, for example:

  /home/shared
  /home/user1/Documents
  /home/user1/Development

  The client mounts these as follows:

  server1:/home/shared    /home/shared    nfs rw,soft,intr 0 0
  server1:/home/user1/Development /home/server1/user1/Development nfs rw,soft,intr 0 0
  server1:/home/user1/Documents   /home/server1/user1/Documents   nfs rw,soft,intr 0 0

  I see lots of messages like this in /var/log/syslog:
