What filesystem are you exporting on the server? What is the NFS
version? Is this nfsroot, autofs or an ordinary nfs mount?

This is an nfsroot of /home/ukl/nfsroot/tx28 which is a symlink to a
directory on a different partition.  I don't know the filesystem of my
homedir as it resides on a server I have no access to, but I asked the
admin, so I can follow up with this info later (I'd suspect ext3, too).

Yes, it is ext3.

The real root directory is on ext3 (rw,noatime).

The serving nfs-server is Debian's nfs-kernel-server 1:1.2.2-1.

If that matters, kernel is linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 (2.6.32-29)
provided by Debian.

                                                               I don't
know if testing that further would help or just waste of my time, so
please let me know if I can help you and how.

This still applies
