Hi Jakob,

To clarify, you are using PVFS version 1.x, correct?  Are there  
limitations you have that force you to stick with version 1.x,  
instead of using to 2.6.2 (such as a lot of data stored in the old  
1.x format)?  Otherwise, can I encourage you to upgrade to PVFS  
version 2?  Its more actively being maintained (this list is  
especially for PVFS version 2.x questions only).

As for login problems, can you be more specific about the setup you  
want to achieve?  I'm not that familiar with PVFS version 1.x, but in  
version 2.x, the servers can run as any user, so if the user accounts  
you have on the two networks differ, you should still be able to run  
the servers on them just fine.

Perhaps Walt can answer your question in a PVFS 1.x context if you  
provide more info about the problems you're having.
