The problem is that our Sun's (SunOS 4.1.4) sysadmin don't want to run rpc.mountd -n. But besides I recently switched from Linux where I had the same version of amd compiled and running without any problems (it uses ports<1024 for mounting). I'm not a Unix guru, but it seems that kernel doesn't allow amd process to use ports<1024. Or may be I misunderstand smth? Is it curable? Best wishes.
