No, there's no snooping going on on this machine. What seems odd is that
the idle time seems to show the age of the filesystem that is being
nfs-mounted (if that makes sense). Which makes me believe that there is a
file on the NFS server that wasn't created properly, but I have no idea.
I checked the /dev directory thinking that perhaps the tty's weren't
set with the proper major/minors and everything looks fine, so I have no
clue what it could be.
