Maintainence of multiple vendor source trees via NFS. Message-ID: <8808240027.AA08141@kth.se> Date: 23 Aug 88 22:39:14 GMT References: <4565@saturn.ucsc.edu> Sender: daemon@bloom-beacon.MIT.EDU Reply-To: xpert@athena.mit.edu Organization: The Internet Lines: 11 I tried to keep only one source of X and use a shadow tree across NFS. Unfortunately, I was keeping the source on a micro-VAX and one of the shadow trees on Apollo DN3000. The unfortunate part is that the apollo has a bug (confirmed by apollo) in lstat so that over the NFS, it gives unpredictable (to me and to the apollo software as well) response. I had to give it up and make another copy on apollo. (at least 'til SR10) thought you'd like to know in case these other machines you reference are apollo. ken
