   Dave-
      what are you using in /etc/fstab?   it should look like this:

   remote:/fs                     /fs     nfs     rw,-b,-P        0 0

						   use priv port


Ok, and can I add another option I need such as this?

   remote:/fs                     /fs     nfs     rw,-b,-P,-c        0 0

If so thanks for pointing this out. Will 'amd' know what to do with this?
