Answered no to all the sysinstall questions. Do not have any of the rc.conf option you posted in my rc.conf. This looks like bug in 5.2 What do you think, should I submit problem report? -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Matthew Seaman Sent: Friday, January 16, 2004 12:05 PM To: fbsd_user Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.

Well, according to nfsiod(8) they're instances of a 'local NFS asynchronous I/O server'. Seems that you've actually managed to turn on NFS client support -- the default is for it not to be enabled. Note that if you're using amd(8) to automount removable media, it actually operates through NFS. You might also check for instances of mountd(8), nfsd(8) and rpcbind(8) -- all of which are involved with providing NFS service. (You might need rpcbind(8) for things other than NFS, but you shouldn't run it unless you actually do need it.) Check the following variable settings in /etc/rc.conf -- I've shown the default settings: rpcbind_enable="NO" nfs_client_enable="NO" nfs_server_enable="NO" amd_enable="NO" Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK
