Because you do not have access to your nfs server, the nfs client remains to be checked for any messages coming from nfs server that may be blocked or perhaps erroneously forwarded by your Fedora 13 client. Your nfs server may be sending unsolicited NEW messages (as opposite to ESTABLISHED, RELATED) that may be rejected by your (default) firewall settings. You are also communicating with the source-of-the-big-file machine. Iptables is your default netfilter/firewall on Fedora 13. # iptables -L -n -v If needed you should add extra log rules (man iptables; see LOG target; see presumably /var/log/messages). Test the firewall on your nfs client machine from an external machine.
