We did some initial testing with the beta release of Ultrix 4.2.  It
appeared that AFS 3.1 for system type pmax_ul4 worked on it, but we are
not willing to say that it does definitely work until we have tested it on
the Ultrix 4.2 release.  We received this release last week and we are
in the process of installing it and testing AFS 3.1.  We will let you
know the results of this testing.

As Richard Basch mentioned, AFS does not work on multiprocessor systems.
We do not currently have plans to make AFS work on multiprocessor systems.

If any of you do try AFS 3.1 on Ultrix 4.2 and find problems, please let
us know.

Thanks,
