	Actually, the commands already exist in the /etc/rc file. You just
need to uncomment them. Don't forget the mountd patch included in the
patchkit! (patch 49 I think) Also, 'biod' is called 'nfsiod' under 386bsd.
Hope this helps.

	And since this is my first post to this group, I would like to
extend thanx to William and Lynne Jolitz, and all of the people who have
contributed to 386bsd. Thanks to your talented efforts, I will never
need to run DOS again!!
