	If you have had any experience with Multinet 3.0 NFS running between 
	VMS 5.5 systems, would you take a look at this?

	Using NFS I seem to be having difficulties mapping between users on 
	different machines. User SMITH has an account on both CLIENT:: and 
	SERVER:: (both VMS/Multinet machines). On both machines SMITH is a 
	member of the "GROUP1" NFS group and has been assigned a UID/GID of
	1/200. Machine SERVER:: exports the disk containing the [SMITH] 
	directory to machine CLIENT:: where it is mounted as NFS disk 
	"SERVER_HD0". User SMITH on CLIENT:: can set default to 
	SERVER_HD0:[SMITH] but cannot write to this directory or read 
	protected files from it.

	Note that SMITH's VMS-UICs on SERVER:: and on CLIENT:: are not the
	same and neither correspond to the NFS-UID/GID of 1/200.
	The CLIENT:: machine mounted the NFS-served disk with the "/VMS"
	qualifier.

	What is wrong?
