I haven't done anything unusual that I am aware of when setupping the share, however looking at the output from top shows the following for rpc.statd: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 359 root 96 0 257M 80K select 0:01 0.00% 0.00% rpc.statd The SIZE is 257M (this is on a maching with 128M RAM and 1G swap) - that seems rather high. The handbook says that it could occupy a lot of memory with a lot of clients, but for only 2 clients? Is this of concern and, if so, how would I correct it? Thanx Dave
