2.1.127 and nfsd...

I just upgraded my primary machine and file server to 2.1.127. My
primary machine works great, and in fact seems much faster in some ways
(xterms in X minimize/unminimize much faster than they did).

However, when running nfs on my fileserver (with the latest knfs tools),
it hangs the maching if I enable locking by running statd on both
machines (which is NOT documented anywhere, sigh). I mount the drive,
use the testlk utiltity (or a program that does locking) and the
fileserver dies.

I rolled the fileserver back to 2.1.126 and there are no problems now.
And according to testlk, locking works.

thanks,

jf
