I am getting this same exact message when I try to mount an HP-UX 9000 in 386BSD
I am able to mount my 386BSD drive onto the HP, mount the HP drive onto a sun, mount
the sun onto my 386BSD, mount a linux drive on to my 386BSD, mount the 386BSD drive 
onto Linux, but no matter what I do, I can not mount my HP-UX 9000 drive onto
386BSD.  Whatever I do, I get the same BadMNT RPC:RPC Authentication error;
why=Invalid client credentials."  Also I get the same error when I try to mount
the HP drive onto Linux.  I have spent about three days trying every possible
configuration but no matter what I do..I can't seem to mount the drive!!  I would
really appreciate any help anyone can give me...
