nfsmnthelp command well documented??  I would love to know where you are
finding all this wonderful documentation!!  When searching by title under
info for "nfsmnthelp" there are no matches found.  When searching by
keyword, there are three references found, all of which refer to the vfs
file, which contains the entry:
#nfs 2 /etc/helpers/nfsmnthelp none remote
All say to uncomment the line, etc. but do not tell anything about what
the command itself does or what arguments it accepts.

For that matter, I've found little to no documentation on any command in the
/etc/helpers directory.                              
The only way I discovered how to use the /etc/helpers/nfsmnthelp command
was by talking to an IBM NFS developer directly on the phone.

I'd love to read the documentation on all the commands in the /etc/helpers
directory.  Help us out by telling where this alleged documentation is
located!

1. Need help nfs mounting from an Apollo.

  Help!  I am trying to mount an exported filesystem from an Apollo
DN10000, SR10.3 on a RISC/6000 320 V3.1.  I am stuck with filesystem
names on the apollo like //einstein/u1.  Thats a double slash.
When I try 'mount einstein://einstein/u1 /mnt', I get:

mount: access denied for einstein:/einstein/u1
mount: giving up on:
        einstein:/einstein/u1

The AIX mount has dropped the the first slash.  How can I get it to
stop doing this?

  Thanks...
