Anybody know why I am not able to use extract_unbundled as root with a
remote drive? I get the message:

	Enter media drive location [local | remote]: r
	Enter hostname of remote drive: beep

	Permission denied.
	/usr/etc/extract_unbundled : Problem with reaching remote host beep

If not root, then I can get to the remote machine.  The only problem is
that I need to be root in order to run the install script for this product
(SunLink DNI).

Local machine is a 3/80, remote is a 3/60.  Both running OS 4.0.3.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
