Problem using emacs dired across network

I have a slight problem using emacs dired - I'm continually getting error 10003.

What I have is the following:

A DEC Alpha running emacs on OSF/1 v3.0. This has some FreeBSD filesystems
mounted using NFS. Whenever I run dired onto a long directory I only get 40-50
lines of the dired. The rest is missing and I get an error in the top of the
dired window saying error 10003 occurred. I can do dired from this alpha to any
of the other servers in the office (DEC, SUN) with no problem but to the FreeBSD
box I get this error. I do not get this problem running the other way round.
Emacs on the FreeBSD box with the DEC filesystems NFS mounted. I also don't get
a problem on our NT boxes using SAMBA - the Alpha is the main SAMBA machine as
well.

I assume that I have misconfigured something somewhere but I'm not sure if it is
on the Alpha or the FreeBSD box. Both machines are in each others hosts.equiv
file and I can see nothing different in their respective setups.

I've posted this to both the FreeBSD list and the osf managers list and I hope
someone can help as this is annoying me.


Bye
