Keith,
Thanks a lot for that. I have installed kdb and am getting the same problem,
but I have not tried the above yet.
I don't think it is XFS related at this point, because it happens even if I am
only exercising an ext3 FS.
This server must be incompatible with a vanilla 2.4.19 kernel. It has worked
well in the past with SuSE patched kernels.
