Not really. I did have two problems but they were related to system
configuration. At first my resolv.conf had a typo (came in like that) and it
was not resolving names locally. That prevented 3DS/R to resolve localhost. I
guess this is the first time I run an app that requires localhost by name. The
second problem had to do with accessing the SGI from different computers. Those
running PC-NFS had no problem. Some are running FTP Software's OnNet and for
those I had to install PCNFSD on the SGI (my pcnfsd server is a Sun running on
the same network). At any rate, the whole ordeal took less than 30 minutes
which isn't that bad considering an Unix installation.
