I know that on Solaris NFS has some issues...you can set the setting in /etc/vfstab (I think)...by default it will try to connect 10000 times if a server is not available and as such floods the TCP connections and the machine can hardly do anything...I am not sure the exact settings but I think there is a flag YES/NO where you can set it to NO so that it doesn't look for the machine and carries on...This is true for solaris...no idea about any SCO...but I am sure there must be a setting some where in the /etc dir...look for nfs files.../etc/dfs/dfstab, etc etc...hope this helps...
