When you set up the server to provide clients with access to certain
directories, you have the following line in /etc/exports:

	/vlsi	access=clients

but we found that it doesn't work!  We have to state:

	/vlsi	-access=vlsi4

(i.e., vlsi4 is a specific machine; note the "-" required.)

Now, this limits us to only allowing a single client access to the
directory /vlsi !  Is there some kind of client file for a server, which
the manual has forgot to tell us about?
