I'm running a kernel (and the rest of the OS, for that matter) from mid 
Jan...around the 16th...

I'm wanting to upgrade to that latest...But...

My source area is on a Sequent S81...an i386 machine...I went to NFS 
mount my source tree, and WHALA!...the kernel hung...I checked the 
syslogs on the Sequent and saw that yuri (my NetBSD box) was sending it's 
IP in the wrong order...204.164.128.193 as opposed to 128.193.164.204...

So I tried the same thing on an HP on the same subnet, and WHALA!...I can 
mount the HP...it sees my IP as 128.193.164.204...

The Sequent's configuration has not changed, and I haven't mounted the 
source area since I upped the kernel in Jan.

The HP, btw, is an 845 running HP-UX 8.02...PA-RISC 1.0...Big-endian...

Byte order crossed my mind, but...

Any help is appreciated...

Later...
