I'm running a similar system to what you're trying to do, and it works. The directory name you give is the correct one for it to be trying to work in given the WKRDIRPREFIX you gave. Is it possible that /usr/obj is also mounted r/o from somewhere else? That would cause the above behavior. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
