All, On our main file server, all our home directorys are automount points. So /home isn't a real filesystem area, it points to a bunch of different home areas based on the auto.direct table. Example: /home/user1 mounts from --> /export/home1/user1 /home/user2 mounts from --> /export/home2/user2 /home/user3 mounts from --> /export/home2/user3 /home/user4 mounts from -->

...ve fit the rank of the covariance turns out to be 9. In Simon Wood's book, the rank of covariance matrix is usually either 9 or 99 (pages 239-230 and 259). Can anyone comment on why so many smooth terms have a denominator degree of freedom involving 9. Simon Wood writes "r is usually determinted numerically, while forming the pseudoinverse of the covariance matrix, or with reference to the effective degrees of freedom of the term" which doesn't really clarify the issue for me at least.
