- Well, why doesn't it work? Where does it fail? It has worked for me,
- although I didn't test it extensively.
-
- That'll teach me to assume that when an application fails on one
- system, it'll fail on another. :-) Under SunOS 4.1.1, AUFS says the
- NFS-mounted volume is locked. But it works under Ultrix 4.2A. And
- I had not gotten around to testing the latter.
-
- Thanks for the sanity check, and the other posts about SunOS patches
- and 4.1.2.
