- You had vaxa mounted over the network, then something happened
- on the vax, either someone unmounted the disk that you had mounted
- as vaxa or the system was shutdown. Now your amiga is confused
- about where the volume is, hence it calls it "stale". It's easy
- to fix, you can reboot your amiga, then when it comes back up it
- will remount it, or you can unmount vaxa and then mount vaxa. If
- you continue to have problems past that then you should check to
- make sure the volume is mounted and exported on the vax.
