Has anyone noticed that IBM's TeX and Metafont don't seemed to get along
with NFS.  I recently tried to put my metafont source files on a remotely
mounted directory and MF couldn't find them.  I've also noticed that I
can't TeX a files that is remotely mounted.  Does anyone know why?  Is
there a PTF for this (he hopes ;-).  It is really annoying.
