Hi Andy,
It might also be worth the trouble to try rebuilding all the
device files in /dev.
My swap file is 600 and I don't have any problems with it. Are you
sure your NFS stuff is correct? I had to specify -alldirs, cause I was
NFS-mounting a file below the mount point for the device.
Good luck,
Josh
