Has anyone seen this happen,
We have a PC-NFS network with about 50 PCs served by a SUN 3/160
when a user (using a 386-25) indexes a large file with dbase III+ with
both the dbase and index file on the same mounted drive the system 
comes to standstill.  When we check the system we find all 8 nfsd's
have completely taken over the whole system.
