I get this same error when mounting an apollo filesystem on
an Ultrix VAX. Mounting the Ultrix filesystem on the apollo works 
OK however. I've tried this with both 10.1 and 10.2 of Domain/OS.

I also had no problems going to the suns, nor do we have problems going 
from ultrix <-> sun. I've got a call into apollo on this, they're sending a
patch for nfs to see if that clears it up.
