# shutdown -i6 -g0 -y

Shutdown started. Tue Oct 1 09:47:03 BST 2002

Broadcast Message from root (pts/1) on hermione Tue Oct 1 09:47:04...

Log off now or risk your files being damaged

Changing to init state 6 - please wait

vviscomi,

This seems like an NFS problem. It could be that the server you are mounting from is off live or the nfsd is not running on it. Try

>showmount -e nfs.server.name

This sould give you all of the files that it is sharing. If you don;t see anything then the nfsd is down.

good luck
