(Not a > good idea...) No, that not the case. But I can see why it would wreak havoc. Anyways, this is what I did: - I shut down all boxes interacting via NFS. - When booting them up, I switched to single-user mode and: * wiped /var/lib/nfs/mtab * removed any files in /var/lib/nfs/sm{,.bak} And we'll see if the message shows up again.
