Ok, thanks. Do you have any suggestions on the other questions I had?

Additionally, if I am using the first doc, then where is
STATD_SHARED_DIRECTORY being used? It isn't being passed to the statd
command that I can tell...

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi,

Use the first link. That is the correct one.

The second link is "old"
