I have been having trouble NFS mounting filesystems on our Sequent
running DYNIX V3.1.4 on a PC running 386bsd.  All of the other machines
I've tried mount up fine but the Sequent causes an authentication error.

When attempting to mount the Sequent filesystem on 386bsd I get this
error:

Bad MNT RPC: RPC: Authentication error; why = Invalid client credential

On the Sequent we do not have nfs_portmon or ipaddr_check set so I can't
figure out why this error is coming up.

Does anyone know how I can fix this or what could be causing the
problem?

Thanks in advance,
