I basically gave up on using Sequent as a file server. It's
NFS facilities are too antiquated even under the recent
DYNIX 3.0.17.9 (which is what I have installed right now).
It's a pity, because serving file systems is one of the
things that Sequent would be very good at. I am thinking
about moving to a Public Domain version of NIS if I ever
can get my hands on it or Andrew File System. I'm not sure
if the latter would run without Mach though.
