What does "rpc.lockd: Cannot contact status monitor!" mean?


	For some reason rpc.lockd can not talk to rpc.statd. 

	Check to see if rpc.statd is running. If rpc.statd
	is not running re-start it. If rpc.statd is running, 
	kill it and restart it. You will need to kill and restart
	rpc.lockd too. 

	Use this procedure to restart rpc.lockd and rpc.statd.

		kill rpc.statd and rpc.lockd
		start rpc.statd
		wait a 10 seconds or so
		start rpc.lockd

	If this does not work kill rpc.statd and rpc.lockd 
	remove /etc/sm /etc/sm.bak directories and re-start the
	daemons using the above procedure..
