I had a dual nic NFS server (both nics in the same subnet and physical lan) I was issuing a mount to nic1, but nic0 was responding, so I got the NFS NULL call and a timeout. The fix was to issue it to nic0. (This is very likely due to my same subnet setup) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.
