>Description:
Both boxes NFS hung at the same time with each reporting a mount from the other machine not responding. In the case of the -stable machine it was the -current box's /mnt mounted on /var/ftp/incoming and on the -current machine it was the -stable box's /. The -stable box reports the -current box not responding at 3:22AM. ps -x on the -stable box reports the suspicious unkillable process:

"root 31885 0.0 0.7 896 448 ?? D 3:22AM 0:00.19 find /var -xdev -type f ( -perm -u+x -or perm -g+x -"

which I summize is from the scripts in /etc.

Unfortunatly on both boxes a mount related command (e.g. df, umount) hang a login and don't respond to kill -9 so I am not able to obtain any more information from the -current box untill it reboots.

I was about the put the latest snap on the -current box too. =/
>How-To-Repeat:
I'd guess running the security script in /etc that runs the find on /var while /var contains a NFS mount within its hierarchy.
