Pretty sure this was my bad.  The profile.dat file for the "largest" of the
profiles was owned by root.  Although it was mode 0644, there were errors in
the logfile that made it sound like the profile wasn't getting opened
correctly because the user 'nobody' (whom nfsen runs as) was unable to gain
write access to it.

nfsen[1024]: Error live: Can't open profile data file for profile: live:
  Permission denied

Changed the file to be owned by nobody and the error is gone.  I'm hoping
this is what was causing the problem.
