Hi Everyone!  Well, Murphy is coming a-calling...  Friday pm and most gurus 
are off for a long week-end-  Yikes.

All of our clients are dropping off after only running a short while- 
minutes...  The twin 3 gig mp server is crawling- K12ltsp 4.2.   A reboot 
just allows all of the slow downs and trouble to begin minutes after reboot.

ps -aux | grep ident

returns hundreds of:

My technician thought we had a bad switch or computer somewhere.  We have 
unplugged every switch from our short fibre network.  We can't keep the 
server up or clients reliably.  Help!

Thanks,  Jim
