Can anyone give me some information about the problems encountered
when using NFS with a mixture of Sun-2 and Sun-3 machines?
I currently have a Sun-2/120 running V2.0, and am about to be handed
(at least) a Sun-3 (obviously running V3.0), andpossibly another
Sun-3.
The Sun-2 currently has 2Mb, with a 40Mb disc, about to be upgraded
to a 70Mb disc. The spec of the Sun-3 has yet to be agreed, but 4Mb
+ 130Mb disc seems likely.
I have heard rumours that certain 2.xx version of Sun Unix give real
problems when using NFS with Sun-3 machines.
