I am using ultrix 3.1 and NFS on 3 Microvax II's.

I have my umask set up as 02.  

If I create a file using touch the machine that has a file 
system mounted over the network,  I get  644 as the permission.

If I go over the the nfs server of that partion and I create
a different file using touch I get 664.

Does umask work correctly with nfs?  Is the some other thing
beside umask that will set the permission of the files.

Thanks in Advance
