Yes sir, I added them to the rc.conf, changed the links to point where I
wanted them and rebooted, same issues.

I cant waste anymore time with what I wanted to do. I will leave /mail on
the nfs share and just build a new server. I have 2 days and hopefully I
will keep my job.

Wish me luck...

Adding them alone just tells the system at startup to start

Did you start statd and lockd by hand before trying the /www again?
