The mkdirback command is not backing up nfs mounted filesystems

Question:

Env:
  AIX 4.2.1
  RISC J30
  sysback 4.1.3.3

Problem:
  Customer is not able to use the mkdirback command to backup 
  nfs mounted filesystems.

Action Taken:
  This is a defect with sysback.rte 4.1 and is fixed with sysback 4.1.4

WORKAROUND

  1.  cd /usr/sbin
  2.  cp mkdirback mkdirback.org
  3.  vi mkdirback

      Search on "find"

      Change this line from:
      ----------------------

       find .$file -type d -fstype jfs $days -print | \\

      To:
      ---

       find .$file -type d $days -print | \\

Note:
  I removed the "-fstype jfs" entry

                        Change this line from:
                        ----------------------

                        \# List regular files
                        find .$file ! -type s ! -type d -fstype jfs $days \\

                    To:
                       \# List regular files
                         find .$file ! -type s ! -type d $days \\

Note:
I removed the "-fstype jfs" entry
