We are encountering an annoying problem when we try to use some utilities
distributed with SCO ODT 1.0. For example, if we try to `make' a program
on an NFS mounted ULTRIX filesystem the command terminates with the message:

		`Make: don't know how to make cio.o'

Similarly, if we install manual pages on he ULTRIX system, the `man' command
doesn't find the manual pages (although MANPATH was set correctly.
This problem does not show up as long as the NFS mounted filesystem is a
System V.3 filesystem.

Did anyone else have the same experiences and is the problem solved in
the new UNIX (or coming ODT 1.1) release?

Any information is appreciated!
