Ooops :-)
Thank you for pointing that! Now, this was the situation:

celina ~ # ll -d / /var /var/lib
d-wxr----t  21 root root 568 Dec 22 21:05 /
drwxr-xr-x  21 root root 584 Dec 26 15:49 /var
drwxr-xr-x  12 root root 304 Dec 30 17:59 /var/lib

Ouch... Who the .uc. chmod-ed /? Knowing it is probably me does not make me feel better.
Found another box with the same problem, so might have to investigate it.

Anyway, fixind that and creating/chmod-ing /var/lib/nfs/sm{,.bak} and now everything is fine!

celina ~ # ls -ld / /var /var/lib /var/lib/nfs /var/lib/nfs/{state,sm*}
drwxr-xr-x  21 root   root 568 Dec 22 21:05 /
drwxr-xr-x  21 root   root 584 Dec 26 15:49 /var
drwxr-xr-x  12 root   root 304 Dec 31 14:38 /var/lib
drwxr-xr-x   7 root   root 304 Dec 31 14:41 /var/lib/nfs
drwxr-xr-x   2 nobody root  48 Dec 30 20:25 /var/lib/nfs/sm
drwxr-xr-x   2 nobody root  48 Dec 30 20:25 /var/lib/nfs/sm.bak
-rw-------   1 nobody root   4 Dec 31 14:41 /var/lib/nfs/state

Will have to drink less coffee, I guess :-)

Happy hollidays to all!

Kalin.
