OK, this must be an RTFM except I can't find it in TFM.  How do I execute
stuff on an NFS drive.  I created a nice big Pub/OS2 directory on my Sun to
be shared by our OS/2 systems.  It works fine for most things, but if I
try to run an executable from the NFS mount I get an error that the file
xxx.exe could not be found.  It must have found the damn thing to know what
the extension is.  All the attributes look good.  Why won't it run?  

Humble thanks in advance.
