  Huh? I don't know of any such limitation on Umax4.2. I've run programs on
Umax4.2 that used many megabytes of shared memory as far back as early 1986.
There must be more to this story...

=======================================================

	This is typical of Encore....Goldman look at the original
posting.

	When is bsd4.3 and nfs client coming out.  Many sites are 
being very patient and AGAIN Encore is making promises it cannot keep.

	We bought NFS in July of 1988 and nothing yet with the client.
