My MIPS RC3240 doesn't permit root access even with
/usr theory -rootid=root
On Theory, a Sun-3/80 running 4.0.3, "hostname" returns "theory" so I
don't think it's an identity confusion.
When the *same* file system is NFS-mounted on a MicroVax II running
Ultrix-32 V3.0 (Rev 64) it comes up read/write even though the fstab
entry specifies r/o:
/usr@matrix:/usr/matrix:ro:7:4:nfs::soft,bg,intr
^
|____ read-only.
Has anyone seen this problem/these problems, and more importantly,
know a way around them?
Thanks in advance,
dan davison

"Mars is essentially in the same orbit...somewhat the same distance
from the sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where
there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that
means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe" -- Vice
President Dan Quayle, Head of the National Space Council, when
questioned on CNN about why America should send a mission to Mars.
