Interesting.  I have a similar problem from a Sun to the Apollo.  I can access it, but
df only works if I'm root.  I mounted //.  Anyone have any ideas?

I've also seen other things.  The Sun hangs (^C breaks out of it) trying to run binaries
stashed on the Apollo - or reading and writing large files.  The error on the Apollo was
something to the affect that a value was non-numeric.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
