The problem occurs when trying to mount a disk from a server that runs
proper NFS software (e.g. Ultrix).  Due to the (probably) increasing use
of private NFS servers and accessing them from athena workstations,
conformance here will be more and more useful.

Maybe we should also fix rpc.mountd to convert non-FQDN's names
before comparing.  [btw, I don't think our default set-up turns on ip
address checking in rpc.mountd]

/etc/mount should also be fixed.

Where is 'spoofhost' in the manual page?

John
