Unmounting and re-mounting NFS mounts did not solve the problem, as rpciod is still stuck in 'D' and stuck smbd processes are still spawning with the same files open as before.
(I also noticed that a small number of afpd (from netatalk) processes were also stuck in 'DL', with filehandles open on a different NFS mount.) This left a reboot as the only way to deal with the problem. I'll continue to monitor the situation, and if the problem persists I'll try the kernel from squeeze-backports, if it can be installed without too much disruption. If that persists, the system is going to be reverted to 2.6.26 from lenny. -- William Aoki KD7YAF wa...@umnh.utah.edu 5-1924 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
