Both approaches reulted in the client crashing and rebooting. Something that makes this problem even more difficult to understand is that I have managed to use mv two times with success.. Could it be something wrong with my Network adapter??? It's an SMC card using the dc0 driver. I've had this problem before running freebsd4.7 on the client, but I think the problem that time was that the kernel was built from another CVS-release than the rest of the OS. If there are any logs that could be of interest, tell me and I'll post them.. regards Stefan
