Hmm. You don't even need to do a 'find'. When my server goes down, the client becomes completely hosed. I can't login, run a bloody thing, nor perform a normal shutdown. All it does is periodically scroll messages about "..Can't get a request slot.." on the console until terminated and rebooted via sysreq.
The server is mounted as "hard, intr", but damned if I can actually interrupt the failed RPC call.
