- OK, this must be an RTFM except I can't find it in TFM. How do I execute
- stuff on an NFS drive. I created a nice big Pub/OS2 directory on my Sun to
- be shared by our OS/2 systems. It works fine for most things, but if I
- try to run an executable from the NFS mount I get an error that the file
- xxx.exe could not be found. It must have found the damn thing to know what
- the extension is. All the attributes look good. Why won't it run?
-
- Humble thanks in advance.
