Thanks. (Do I really want the last line "rpc.nfsd 16"? After all, I'm trying to turn nfs off.) It sounds as if there is a bug here, but it's Gentoo nfs init script that's at fault because presumably it should be executing "rpc.nfsd "0 and "exportfs -f" in response to "/etc/init.d/nfs stop". -- Maurice Volaski, mvolaski-Q33DkHiyi7z2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org Computing Support, Rose F.
