My thanks to MacTroll and n^x for responding as it put my on the right track.
There was no /etc/fstab file and I removed the secondary DNS servers in System Preferences as recommended. I had set up (for some boneheaded reason) a couple network mounts of some sharepoints. When I disabled those network mounts in workgroup manager, the errors stopped. D’oh!
My thanks again for getting me on the right track. Now I need to educate myself on network mounts.
Cheers,
John
