Hi, I've been having NFS locking trouble on my sid system for a while, but never got around to really looking at it. Based no your mail I did a little debuging and discovered statd was dying here too with:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] jon]$ sudo /sbin/rpc.statd -F -d 06/20/2001 12:19:25 rpc.statd[6177]: Version 0.3.2 Starting 06/20/2001 12:19:25 rpc.statd[6177]: Flags: No-Daemon Log-STDERR /sbin/rpc.statd: error while loading shared libraries: /sbin/rpc.statd: symbol __rpc_thread_variables, version GLIBC_2.2.3 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference nfs-common 0.3.2-1 libc6 2.2.3-6 upgrading my nfs-common to nfs-common (0.3.2-2) has fixed this. -Jon
