Hello,

we are also using diskless clients but have never seen something like this, 
though none of your hanging programs is running on your systems.
Is there anything in the logs? Which kernel-versions are you using? If you are 
using redhat kernel you should try a vanilla kernel (2.4.21 *NOT* 2.4.22).

Btw, how is your diskless setup working? Perhaps there's something wrong?

Regards,
	Bernd
