Ray, Your clnt_create messages occurred while I was rebooting rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu here (all out power outages this week with 3-7 feet of snow zotted the monitor, so had to swap that out). More importantly, your pqact messages indicate a problem with one of your pqact.conf actions. You can send your pqact process a "kill -USR2 pid" to put that process in verbose mode and identify which of your actions is failing.
