I have installed the latest HP/Compaq Tru64 patches T64V51B19-C0136901-15143-ES-20020817.tar Beware of the /sbin/mount in patch OSFPATC0136901510 within: using 'mount -a' kills any local mountd with log message: Sep 3 06:19:01 rome mountd[228]: aborting: received a User defined signal 1 Note that mountd is started in /sbin/rc3.d/S19nfs but then /sbin/rc3.d/S20nfsmount uses '/sbin/mount -a -v -t nfs'. You may want to back out of that patch for now... (The above is for Tru64 V5.1, the only version I have around.) I have reported this to Compaq (but expect no speedy resolution). I am puzzled: why patch /sbin/mount or /usr/bin/csh if they are not setuid?
