- That's good. Did you see my answer? It was rather long-winded, so I've
- mailed you a copy rather than reposting.

- You can't currently have two different proxies for the same remote
- host and user. This restriction made sense when NFS proxies were the
- only proxies supported. Now that communication proxies are provided,
- the restriction should be eased. This should be fixed in a future
- version of UCX.
-
- As for your NFS proxy problems, you didn't include enough information
- for me to be sure, but for starters, you might try cleaning out any
- invalid proxies you added while experimenting with RLOGIN. Note that
- communication proxies (for use with RSH) don't require a UID or GID,
- just a remote username. Make sure the relevant remaining proxies have
- an "ND" next to them in the SHOW PROXY output (NFS, Dynamic). Watch
- the OPCOM messages when you try to mount or access the relevant
- filesystem; they often provide a strong clue.
