Shared memory in NetBSD is just an interface to mmap'd pages, so it can be swapped to disk. But I assume your swap is not on NFS.... A ktrace would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if you tried doing an initdb to a directory on the filer to see if you can even create a database cluster, and tried doing that or rsyncing and accessing your data over NFS with a NetBSD system as the NFS server. cjs -- Curt Sampson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +81 90 7737 2974 http://www.netbsd.org Don't you know, in this new Dark Age, we're all light. --XTC ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
