- Hmmm. I've been away from Sun systems for a while now and can't recall
- _exactly_ what the problem is but if I recall it has to do with NFS services
- being unexported while you have the file system mounted or some such. I
- would try posting your message to COMP.SYS.SUN.ADMIN (or something like
- that) and emphisize the --> NFS: Stale filehandle <-- message since I recall
- it was the dead givaway. Of course it may work differently on the VAX but
- I would be supprised. I think your problem is on your host. Good luck!
