Fair enough.  I have the following entry in our netgroups map:

physics		(annett.phys.psu.edu,,) (banavar.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(bangalore.phys.psu.edu,,) (collins.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(corsica.phys.psu.edu,,) (etat.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(faraday.phys.psu.edu,,) (glue.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(neutron.phys.psu.edu,,) (phoenix.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(psuphys1.phys.psu.edu,,) (quixote.phys.psu.edu,,)\
		(color.phys.psu.edu,,) (willis.phys.psu.edu,,)

and this line in /etc/exports:

/export/home	physics

So, for example, the host color.phys.psu.edu, should be able to mount
/export/home, right?  I get permission denied.  If I put color.phys.psu.edu
in the export line, it works.  Major blah.  This doesn't work on our ultrix
4.0 and our ultrix 4.3 system.
