+    NOTE for SLES10 servers: The nfs start scripts on most distro's start
+    rpc.statd by default.  However, the in-kernel lockd that was in SLES10 has
+    been removed in the new kernels.  Since OFED is back-porting the new code 
to
+    the older distro's, there is no in-kernel lockd in SLES10 and the SLES10
+    nfsserver scripts do not know the need to start it.  Therefore, the user
+    MUST start rpc.statd.
