I was wondering if anybody was familiar with any problems in the BSDI
implementation of NFS?  Something to do with lock files that would
make it unsuitable for use with user home directories and the mail
spool?  I've heard something to this effect, but was unable to find
anything indicating so in any of the relevant FAQs...
