Help!

I have three workstation (slabs) I have been trying to add to
the netinfo network and I keep getting the following messages when
I try to boot the systems after they have been added to the
netinfo server:

      syslog: netinfo sleeping:RPC:Unable to receive;errno = connection
      reset by peer
      lookupd: netinfo sleeping:RPC:Unable to receive;errno = connection
      reset by peer

I have all of the correct ethernet/IP/hostname stuff right.  I tried
deleting and readding to the server.  I should mention that two of the
machines were not turned off when they were added to netinfo (which the
manual says to do...bad doggie!).  I have not experienced this problem
before.  Did the machines being up cause this problem? Is there a file
out there somewhere that needs to be nuked?  The server shows
the new entries as being added and correct.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
