[comp.sys.apollo] NFS problem

Hi,

We're having problems using NFS to mount an Ultrix conatiner from a vax onto
an apollo. The mount seems to go okay, and if I log in as root I can read the
remote mounted directories. However if I log in as a mere mortal and try to
access the same directories I get permission denied, and access violations are
logged on the vax's console. (The permissions are set so that I should be able
to read the directories.)

DEC say this is a known bug in apollo's NFS. Apollo say they'll have a look
and then never ring back. Has anyone else seen this or know of a way round
it?

BTW we're running domain/os 10.3 and NFS 2.2 on apollo 3010s

Regards,

Chris
