For completeness, I am using Maestro's NFS client on the PC, and we are working with SunOS and SCO (OS5) servers. From the PC, I can mount the NFS drives in one of two ways. One way is via the "Network Neighborhood" where I can "map" the drive. The otherway is via a Maestro tool. After the initial mount, my pc seems to remount the drive automatically. When I use the "map" command, the networked drives show up as "local" drives. When I "truename K:\foo\bar" on the full path of the rcs directory, the command simply returns what I gave it, except in all caps. Eli also wanted specifics on my actual binaries. I grabbed rcs5713b.zip from ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp. A "pkunzip -v" gave the following information about the file: PKUNZIP (R) FAST!
