error in XConsole

Hi,
I am running netbsd1.0A-athena with X, it has been good since I can do
all the normal athena stuff.

However, there is an error that pops up in my XConsole,

13:32 nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Authentication error; why = Invalid client credential

This message pops up every minute. Although it does seem to affect anything I do,
but it is quite annoying.

Also, netbsd does reboot my system properly. This happens with 'halt'/'reboot'
and 'shutdown -r now'. They lock up before they mark my filesystem clean, although
the cache seems to have been flushed, since during the next bootstrapping,
'fsck' doesn't find anything wrong other than FS not marked clean.

I've tried to install netbsd-athena on another system, even though that installation
was unsuccessful, netbsd did shutdown correctly, so I assume this is specific to
this machine.

The machine is a Dell OptiPlex 466/Le, it has an ATAPI cdrom and a logitech
bus mouse. (just in case you need to know)

Any help would be appreciated.

PS NetBSD's ability to run athena smoothly really caught my attention, if we can
take out the bugs, it will be a great OS for resnet.
