Thanks to Daniel A. Prener <PRENER@IBM.COM> who pointed me in the right 
direction:  remove all files in the directory /etc/sm.bak

The machine was so bogged down that I had to boot from floppies to
remove /etc/sm.bak and comment out the entries for statd and lockd
in /etc/rc.nfs.  This allowed the machine to respond well enough to
make use of info.  The relevant sections are: (search on etc/sm.bak)
Maintaining the Network Lock Manager, statd Daemon, lockd Daemon.

The /etc/sm directory and /etc/state also had to be removed.  The remote
filesystem had already been removed from /etc/filesystems (not /etc/fstab).


Thanks to all who responded,
