So nothing to do with NFS per se, but the ethernet network card
kernel modules.

Presumably network services other than NFS were also affected by
intermittent outages?

Would monitoring with iftop be useful to see network problems
of this type?

I am not sure what is happening. I know that the share itself is
having unspecified "issues", however, they only affect these two
machines in this way. I am working towards setting up linux-ha to
replace the old share.

I am also upgrading both PCs to Lucid.

Did you manage to solve the problem? What was the fix?
