Does it only happen with the HP machine as the client, or do you
get a similar effect when the Sequent is the client and the HP is
the server?

The detailed script showed that "fltecher" is in 8 groups... this is
a worrying number since most NFS implementations only allow for up
to 8 group ids in the NFS credentials. I'd try again after changing
things so that fletcher is in one less group and see if this helps.

Please let me know if you resolve this as we are about to upgrade to
HP/UX 7.0 and our main server is a B21000..... :-{
