Mike,

I'm guessing that you have set nsrports.... starting with 7.5, the code to 
start up is flawed.
 You have to make sure that nsrports -S does *NOT* include 7937 and 7938.  
Those two ports are
hard coded and will be used no matter what nsrports says to do -- but including 
them in the
range causes other processes to use them and then you get error messages in the
/nsr/logs/daemon.raw file that say the port was already in use... with no idea 
which port!
Easiest way is to instead of using something like

nsrports -S 7937-7940

instead do

nsrports -S 7939-7949

(notice I didn't change the ending port... because 7937 and 7938 will really be 
used, I just
can't tell networker that it is allowed to use them or it will use them at the 
wrong time)
