remopts Option
..............

   This option has the same use as `${opts}' but applies only when the
remote host is on a non-local network.  For example, when using NFS
across a gateway it is often necessary to use smaller values for the
data read and write sizes.  This can simply be done by specifying the
small values in REMOPTS.  When a non-local host is accessed, the
smaller sizes will automatically be used.

   Amd determines whether a host is local by examining the network
interface configuration at startup.  Any interface changes made after
Amd has been started will not be noticed.  The likely effect will be
that a host may incorrectly be declared non-local.

   Unless otherwise set, the value of `${remopts}' is the same as the
value of `${opts}'.
