We have a NeXT machine, v2.0, nfs mounted to our 320 VGX, 3.3.1, that I have
been having an ongoing problem that I origionally attributed to an nfs
incompatability, but have just discovered that it is a problem with csh.  When
I try to access a file on the NeXT machine and use the * or ? characters, csh
returns an error message "No match".  sh will properly handle this filename
substitution and csh will work from a 3000 machine.  I am wondering if this is
a problem on other machines or limited to the NeXT?  Also does anybody (SGI?)
have an explanation/workaround (besides using sh) for this problem?
