You should probably also remove the correponding K scripts in the various runlevels to avoid a delay at shutdown or reboot. > loopback, is that the case?

Yes, also, if you need to run NFS you can use a slightly modified version of the rpc startup scrpit to only start a few of the services instead. -- Chuck McIntyre UNIX Systems Administrator Quinstreet, Inc.
