I'm not experiencing this problem but based upon the previous reports the problems occur when there are no tokens involved for the cell. The cell described above is grand.central.org. The volumes are root.cell.readonly, root.doc.readonly, root.local.readonly and root.software.readonly. All of the volumes except root.doc.readonly are replicated across three machines: andrew.e.kth.se PENN.CENTRAL.ORG GRAND-OPENING.MIT.EDU. root.doc.readonly is replicated across two servers: PENN.CENTRAL.ORG GRAND-OPENING.MIT.EDU I do not see how clock drift would be involved.
