I have been experiencing the nfs hangs like a few other people with current 
for several months.

I have narrowed it down to using pf from ports with the line,

scrub in all

in the conf file (on the server). I can read files fine, but any writes
will hang the process and "nfs server not available" lines appear in the logs.

If I remove that line and reload the pf rules, the copy will resume 
immediately. 


# pkg_info | grep pf
pf_freebsd-2.00_1   OpenBSD pf as a kldmodule
# uname -a
FreeBSD kate.fud.org.nz 5.2-RC FreeBSD 5.2-RC #0: Sat Dec 13 00:52:30 NZDT 2003

Is anyone else seeing this?
