suid,nosuid in NFS

[mcdonald at AEDC-VAX.AF.MIL]

I was recently looking at the man page for /etc/fstab on a machine running
Ultrix 4.1.  I saw a reference to the options suid and nosuid which do:

      suid:  process the setuid attribute on execution of files in the
             file system.

      nosuid: do not process the setuid attribute on execution of files
              in the file system.

I was wondering if Irix 4.0 is going to support these options in mounting
nfs directories?  This is in demand for the security of our systems using
nfs.
