    Hi net-people,

    I just started to administrating HP 9000 series 425-T
workstations. I set one up as NFS server and others as
clients.  When I create directory on client's NFS mounted
disk at user ID root (ID=0), a created directory ID become
65534, not as root.  Friend of mind told me that this is
a feature of NFS, unix kernel will set clients root (ID=0)
ID to (ID=-2).  Is there way to modify HP unix kernel?
So, root on client can create and modify directory as root.

    Thanks for help!!
