We're using the automounter that comes with Ultrix 4.1 pretty heavily
on 12 DECstation 5000s.  Occasionally, the automounter refuses to
mount a partition, and recently, has been getting a "bus error" and
the system has to be rebooted to become usable again.  Are other people
seeing problems like these under Ultrix 4.1?

I've been looking a little bit at amd, the improved automounter available
via anonymous ftp from usc.edu.  Does it work under Ultrix 4.1?  The
documentation mentions VAX Ultrix, but not RISC Ultrix.


Thanks,
