I am running X11R2 on a sun 386i under SunOS 4.0, I have the game xconq 
on an NFS mounted directory (a Sun 4). I set the path in .Xdefaults to
be

xconq.IconFont:		/misc/Xconq5/lib/xconq.snf

(/misc is the NFS mounted directory) 

and xconq says that it can not open the font. Hmmm says I, what about xfd ?
same story. So I moved the fonts to /tmp, shazam it works for both xconq
and xfd. Anyone have any ideas why XLoadQueryFont can't open an nfs file?
The permissions were all correct (I believe that I have checked all of the
obvious problems)
