I assume your userids and groupids match properly (sounds like they
should if you were running this before).

My first guess here is that you need the '-n' option on the 'mountd'
commands in /etc/inetd.conf (Apollo does not have "Secure NFS"), so
you must use unprivileged ports on the NFS server. Next probably
upgraded their NFS between the releases.
