Thanks to Daniel A. Prener <PRENER at 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,
