I can't recall the exact settings off the top of my head (it's a year
since I last looked into the specific topic of NFS), so you'll need to
some research into the configuration of the network file system so it
safely allows multi-thread reading/writing.  I don't think the
defaults are appropriate.

There are too many unknowns w.r.t your set up and what errors are
occuring for me to know whether moving the latest VPB will help, in
general I'd say upgrade.  As for not being compilable under Kubuntu,
this is the platform I use for development, so it does compile.  Try
upgrading and then report the compile errors and we'll see if we can
fix that.

Yes, vpbmaster is just a manager that works out what tasks to run and
their options to run them with, once that task list is generated it
they can be just run individually, it's all vpbmaster does in effect
anyway - there is no coordination or interdependence between the
tasks.

I can't recall the details but try looking at passing the tasks file
into vpbmaster to get it run with already run tasks.  I'm afraid I
just really rusty on it and rather to busy on other to go do the
background research of the code to give you an answer.

Robert.
