Two are NFS servers, and eight are NFS clients. For some reason, my process list seems to disappear... I don't know what's causing it, and I don't claim that NFS is suspect. But this has happened to me on more than one machine already. Can someone please tell me how to solve the "bad namelist" problem, without reinstalling the system from scratch?? I already tried re-genning the kernel, just in case some kernel structure was not where "ps" and such expected it, but that did not fix the problem. HELP... please !!
