While heavy NFS access is going on (for example, someone installing
Debian from my NFS-exported mirror), named serves a huge number of

If the new xlib and xdevel packages are installed in the wrong order then
the various *.so symlinks for the new libraries won't be made correctly.
Check that the /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so symlink exists and points to
