I may be completely off-base here, but I seem to recall getting some of these a long time ago. At the time I think it was cause by a lack of a loopback device and routes. -Mark On Thu, 28 Dec 2000, Cal Erickson wrote:
Navin, The message "neighbour table overflow" is the result of some changes to the IP stack software in Linux version 2.2.x +. This simply means that you are unable to connect to your NFS server. It may be related to the driver, but it may also be related to other issues, such as NFS server not running or incorrectly installed, no physical connectivity to NFS server, etc. Check the configuration of your NFS server and IP network before diving into the driver.

Hello, I have been debugging my custom 823 board. I have an NFS Server setup on which my kernel on the board mounts. I have using this server without any problems for more than a month. All of the sudden, my NFS Server complains of "Neighbour Table overflow" . The NFS Server was not modified, nor restarted. The error also says that the Server returned error -5. Can someone suggest any remedy for this problem? Sincerely, Navin Boppuri-- =========================================================================== Cal Erickson MontaVista Software Inc.
