Correct. As long as the person is someone "trusted in the community" we could do that. And yes we are willing to come to some agreement for compensation for the help. Needless to say our introduction of new machines will go through a more rigourous test in the future.. specially when jumping to a new Release number in FreeBSD. We lost 1 big customer and after today we likely will loose 2 or 3 more.. of the big ones.. when it's all said and done we are likely to loose several thousand dollars/month due to this 6.X incidents. We are fairly new to NFS and that's why we were hoping to get someone to help us.. or at least point us in the right direction. I plan to go over the link you sent me and try to prepare at least one machine. As for paying someone, yes we have been actively looking for someone to help us since we are relatively new to NFS.. and much more newer to troubleshooting this type of prolbems
