I think you're experiancing one of the bugs in the NFS code - I recall seeing this when mounting client/server on the same machine and using NQNFS. If it only happens when you mount the server on itself, then I'd recommend not doing that. :-) -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
