I'm not an nfs expert at all, but a quick look in the nfs howto learned me that this the root_squash happens when the root-user of the client is mapped to the nobody-user on the nfs-mount. This is indeed the policy at the work (I'm not sure, but I think the system also crashes when no nfs-mount are made) [EMAIL PROTECTED] # grep nobody /etc/passwd nobody:*Nologin:65534:65534:anonymous NFS user:/: I've noticed also that, when I copy something onto an NFS mount, I get a really bizarre Numerical uid [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -l /p | grep config -rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 19815 Jan 24 12:16 config-2.4.17 Can you explain what problems this could cause with respect to my Xserver crashes (since an apt-get has nothing to put on my /home)? And how I could further debug this? Thx a lot! Klaas
