Same hardware in all cases, dual xeon supermicro.
At a later time we will invest further diagnostic effort.
Sorry for the lack of specifics.

On our NFS server, rpc.statd is running, but rpc.lockd wasn't. Started
it, still no worky. Killed it, other 4.7 clients still flock fine.
Any suggestions for a fix or workaround so "vacation" works (which depends
on flock) ?
Thanks,

the same hardware, just it has a small /etc/master.passwd which may explain that
systems success to date.

About to revert to our old box and maybe nfs mount
/var/mail to make it less painless. Any suggestions ?

But I liked the old menu system, as it saved me figuring out
the configure args. Was there a reason to move away from that,
or is there a new mechanism I am not aware of ?

to do this ?
After each backup, I'd like to be able to put the
details of all files backed up into a database, so
I can see what versions of each file I've got available
before restoring them.

never mind. "ipfw fwd" does exactly what I am after,
I misunderstood the command line.

Tested with RAID 10 instead of RAID 5, success !
RAID 10 arrays tested: 6xWD200GB and 8xWD200GB both worked
RAID 5 arrays tested: 6xWD200GB and 4xWD200GB both failed
Note: 3ware lists the WD 200GB disk as "Under Test". (ie they have not yet
given it a "Compatible" rating)

By the way, I've determined our removable IDE disk trays are manufactured
by SNT (http://www.snt.com.tw/metal.htm) and are part number
SNT-129. It looks like these are the same ones startech sells.
I've placed my hardware configuration here:

The problem is very repeatable.
Can anyone offer any ideas, or suggest investigative steps ? I have a system
in PIO mode right now.
