Hi, We're trying to execute PC-NFS ver 3.5 from an IBM Model 80. It seems to get everything going until the software starts looking for an "authenication server". What is an authentication server and why isn't one being found when we feel very confident that the IP numbers and other paramenters have been correctly entered? Thanks a lot for any help ...
