Description Dan Pelleg 2002-06-18 14:00:05 UTC

   A stale NFS mount under /usr will hang /etc/security. It appears
that the "find $mount -xdev" hangs as soon as it gets to the mountpoint.
This will hang the daily security check and will prevent both daily mails
from being sent.

Fix: 

I'm not sure if this is a find bug (or find documentation bug), or
just /etc/security using it incorrectly.

 It seems that /etc/periodic/100.clean-disks uses "find -fstype local". Could
that be the solution here?
How-To-Repeat: 1. mount remote:/usr/ports/packages /usr/ports/packages
2. take remote off the network
3. wait for the 3AM security run
4. watch the find hang and daily status mails not being sent
