It seems that automounting takes two tries. The first time I'll get a stale NFS handle; the second time everything is fine. It isn't a big problem. It's just annoying. For example, when reading mail in emacs I have to try at least two times to reply to some mail; once to remount the mh directory and once to remount my home directory. I have another non-smp machine that doesn't exhibit this problem. I can use the 970812 snapshot with no problem. I've used later August snapshots as well but I don't have them available any more. My system is a dual-PPro 200 with a super-micro P6DNF board. (I was experiencing the same problem with an older super-micro dual-PPro board which I upgraded for other reasons). -Fred Gilham gilham@csl.sri.com
