Hi,

I am running a verson 3.1 AFS client on my NeXT workstation.
My workstation is configured as

	CPU: 68040
	Memory: 20MB
	disks:  400MB (internal)
		100MB (external)
	OS:  NeXTOS 2.1

Once in a while the NeXTStep window server freezes up and the only
way I know how to unfreeze it is to

	1) reboot the system
	2) login from a remote system and kill all the NeXTStep
	   applications and the window server.

One thing I noticed is that every time this happens the message
"mach: afs_vno_flush: m->busy" is always logged in the system log
file "/usr/adm/messages".  Has anyone else experienced this
particular problem?  If so, is there a work around?  Thanks.

- Young
