Hello
Using   SunOS 5.6  with HT:DIG  3.0.8b2

  Just an interesting thing to note.

If the db directory has been nfs mounted

 "mount  alpha1.cc:/mnt  /mnt"
  mkdir  /mnt/htdig/db

  and the configuration file to set  use the above directory, 

then htdig 
hangs after having created the file 
"docdb" in the directory /mnt/htdig/db 

If I set the TMP and TMPDIR  variables to point to 
the nfs mounted directory  /mnt/tmp.
and create the db files in a non-nfs mounted directory,
the htmerge program works successfully, implying
that the writing to the tmp file is in someway different
to the writing to the db files.

We get around this by not indexing deep enough
to require the additional space but I thought it might 
be of interest for the list to know.
