Hello,

Ellen Davis posted a question and corresponding summary concerning:

>>After installing patch kit #2 of DU4.0D, I get the message:
>> WARNING unknown option rq - ignored
>>when mounting the disks. I am using ADVFS and quotas. It seems to
>>use rw instead of rq. I tested creating a file on an account with
>>quotas, and the quota limit was enforced.

Ellen's Summary is as follows:

>>At the suggestion of Dr. Blinn, I called Compaq support services.
>>The service rep said to use rw instead of rq. However, he could not
>>explain why rq was still in the fstab man page. This concurs with
>>Brian and Bruce, who also suggested to use rw instead of rq.

I just installed Path Kit #8 on a DU 4.0B and encountered the same thing
       WARNING unknown option rq - ignored

I am posting this as DU 4.0B is also affected by this when Path Kit #8
is installed.

I called Compaq Services on this issue, and was told this is a bug and
it will be fixed. DU Engineering is aware of it.

The workaround is to change rq to rw in the /etc/fstab file.
