[oclug] NFS and kernel 2.4.3

[Bart Trojanowski]

Another word of caution.  If you are running 2.4.x and reiserfs do not
export your reiserfs partitions with nfs.  There are some races here and
may cause your directories and files to vanish.  I have been told that if
this happens you need only run fsck.
