freebsd stable - Apr 2008 - lock problem: nfs server on FreeBSD 7-stable, client on linux

Hi,

We have one nfs server (Mar 27's 7-stable, AMD64) and many clients.
One of the client is also 7-stable(Mar 30's, i386), and others are Debian
Linux. The problem is that the fcntl lock works fine on FreeBSD client
but not on linux ones.

We have tested the linux server + linux client, and they works fine.
The following is all the combination we have tried:

FreeBSD server + FreeBSD client: ok
FreeBSd server + Linux clinet: fail
Linux server + Linux client: ok
Linux server + FreeBSD client: ok

Is there some issue with 7-stable 's rpc.lockd?
More information will be available if necessary, thanks.

I have the similar problem when FreeBSD 7 client + FreeBSD 6 server.

Now, I use ' mount_nfs -L' on the client to do local locking only. Of
course, it may cause other problem.
