Ok my guess from experience is that you may be seeing NFS timeouts and the box is going crazy because the processes cant write to the NFS disk that is mounted on the machine. In many ways you cant solve this problem altogether, but you can alleviate it with some changes to the mount options in the /etc/fstab (or heaven forbid automounter)... This is what we use on our popservers that people imap/pop off of nfs rw,fg,vers=3,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,nointr,nosuid,nodev,tcp,timeo=600 0 0 > >> and are processes in a D state when you see them... > >Stay tuned.. :\ > >_________________________ >Ron Peterson >Network & Systems Manager >Mount Holyoke College > >_______________________________________________ >Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca >MIMEDefang mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang > -- Stephen John Smoogen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Los Alamos National Lab CCN-5 Sched 5/40 PH: 4-0645 Ta-03 SM-1498 MailStop B255 DP 10S Los Alamos, NM 87545 -- So shines a good deed in a weary world. = Willy Wonka -- _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
