On a DN10000, using SR10, the C compiler is apparently unable to write an object file into the current directory if that directory is an NFS-mounted directory. I don't have the rev numbers for SR10 and NFS with me, but SR10 was shipped with the DN10000 about two months ago and NFS arrived about two weeks ago. I realize the problem is probably related to the object-typed file system on the Apollo. Is this a known problem ? Is there a work-around ? Will it be fixed ? If more information is needed, I can post the error message produced in this case (cryptic) and find out the rev numbers on the software. A related question is, once this problem is resolved, will I be able to write an apollo executable over NFS into foo:/bin/bar, create a tar tape from the real unix machine foo, read the tar tape back on a different apollo, and then have a file which SR10 will agree is an executable ? Thanks, Richard Rudell
