First, suddenly the NFS server stopped to respond, but didn't panic. After some work I found that the server could not send any IP packets; sendto() (which ping uses) returned an error with ENOBUF. Then I rebooted the server, and ran ``systat -vm 1'' and ``ping CLIENT''. The ``free'' (between ``cache'' and ``daefr'') remained stable for a while, but as soon as I started to installworld on the client, the figure suddenly began to erode, and when it finally almost hit zero (I think it was 40 or something) -- ping stopped working. Is this a known bug? I don't remember this reported/discussed on -current. Throw me a stone if it's been. :-) Thanks, Eugene -- Eugene M. Kim "Is your music unpopular?
