We have 2 Suns and 4 NeXTstations (soon to be 5) sharing a net. The  
NeXTs need a filesystem mounted from each of the Suns. The problem is  
that if 1 of the Suns is down for any reason, the entire net hangs  
and all we get are the spinning mouse cursor. The filesystems were  
mounted in NetInfo Manager. Is there some way to ensure that the  
entire net doesn't hang when 1 of the Suns goes down?
