We have a situation in which users have accounts on an Ultrix-Vax and
on Suns. The home-directories of the users are on a file-server and are
mounted on the Vax and on the Suns, so on both types of machines the
same aliases.{hash,data} are used. Configure 'sees' that we use NFS and
says that files are kept in network-order. But in the resulting config.h
it has "#undef NETWORK_ORDER" (I would expect it different). Well, the
problem is that if we run "newalias" on the Vax, we have no aliases on
the Suns, and vice versa. I also compiled Elm with "#define NETWORK_ORDER",
but that made no difference. So, what am I doing wrong? Any help would
be appreciated.
Environment: Elm 2.3.8, SunOS 4.1, Ultrix 4.0

Excuse me if you've seen this message before, but I'm not certain it got
out of our site.
