I think I posted this before, but don't remember getting an answer.

I've noted that there is a difference in what fs checkservers reports
depending on if I run it from linux, or from windows.

The linux fs checkservers allways reports that all servers are
running.

The windows version seems more 'correct' in that it reports when some
servers are unavailable.

Why should there be the difference?

This is probably due to confusion over what 'fs checkservers' actually does. What it does _not_ do is check to see if all of your fileservers are up. Rather, what it actually does is report which servers your client believes are down. This list will never include servers which your client has never tried to access. So, you will get different information on each client, depending on what servers that client has talked to.
