Hi all!

No, I'm not exporting any ISO fs over NFS anymore, sometimes I do, but
then only for a couple of minutes and then I exportfs -u the exported
mount point.

I thought it was a heat problem, since I was running dnetc on an AMD
which gets very hot, but I had the same OOPS yesterday, this time only
on nscd (dnetc was also running, so load was at 1).

Everything seems to continue running after nscd oopses, but logins are
impossible, so the machine needs to be rebooted.

Here the last nscd oops:
