Program 100005 is the Mount protocol.  SunOS 4.1 includes support for a new
version of the Mount protocol.  The 4.1 release notes say that this is
needed for support of the "posix" NFS mount option.

However, the impression I got from the manual (and the fact that our 4.1
systems are able to mount file systems from our 4.0.3 and Ultrix file
servers) is that a 4.1 system will fall back to the v1 protocol unless the
"posix" option is used.

So, make sure you aren't specifying the "posix" option when mounting the
VMS system.
