......... NFS question ...... I have an Apollo nfs mounted to our Convex. While on the Convex, if I cd to the nfs mounted dir and do a pwd I get an error. (see below). My Apollo is running SR10.3 and has the latest patches etc. The Convex is running , I think , 8.1 . A big clue here is ...... I can mount this same apollo on my Sun and Decs and I DO-NOT have this problem. This doesn't appear to be a uid problem as we get the same results with differn't or same uids. ALSO, another big clue, ROOT does NOT have this problem. The problem does not show up on the Suns or Decs with a user or Root. Truthfully, I'm not convinced if it's an Apollo problem or Convex problem but it almost looks like it may not be an Apollo problem. Please see example below Any comments / suggestions will certainly be appreciated.
