Not really; tcpdump doesn't decode NFS or RPC packets well enough. ethereal does a much better job (but unfortunately doesn't have a good 1-line-per-packet mode so you can't just email the decoded dump). Ideally, a truss of the last 10 lines of the failing program plus the raw tcpdump log (run with -s 1500 so we get the whole packet) would be better. The truss is so we have proof that file locks are really to blame :) -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
