I got the same problem when I upgraded two machines to 100-TX cards back
to back and was using 16384 for a rsize. The problem came during listing
large (300+ files) directory on the client, the RPC call error came on the
server.
Going back to "defaults" fixed the problem (although one time since then
an ls failed but did not generate a RPC call). I tend to think the problem
is corruption due to buffer overruns on the server side (a P120 serving a
dual PPro). Why it generates error 5 is beyond me. Both machines were
running 2.0.28 and tulip .49 (now .53). The server also runs md on the
drives that are nfs mounted (which are IDE on a triton board).
