All has been fine until recently. Now suddenly the client is giving an mb_map full error message, and the server a "kernel: nfsd send error 55" or 56. At times the server will also panic and dump core. I'd made some hardware changes and thought it might be an address problem, but hardware adjustments had no effect. I tried increasing NMBCLUSTERS to 1024 per a Usenet search, no luck. On a somewhat related note, the server is seeing an NFS client that has not been online in a few months. It's actually the old host name of the client with the mb_map problem. It shows it as being mounted, even after reboot. The old host name has been removed from all the DNS, fstab, & other files. Running BSD 2.0 with plenty of RAM. Thanks -- Steve Suhre
