"Command not found" Message on Client - binary located on NFS mounted filesystem

Hello Managers:
        Three systems: denali, shasta and whitney (the customer has
thing for mountains), all SunBlade1000's running well patched Solaris 8.
 NFS share defined on denali for /opt/local, to make commonly used
binaries available to clients (shasta and whitney). Installed xfig on
denali using packages from sunfreeware. The packages install in
/usr/local, the binary is /usr/local/bin/xfig, there is an symlink from
/opt/local/bin/xfig->/usr/local/bin/xfig. While logged into denali, no
problem, when you do a "which xfig" it points to /opt/local/bin/xfig and
the application runs fine. Now, log into either whitney or shasta,
/opt/local is NFS mounted, /opt/local/bin is in the PATH. If you do a
"ls /opt/local/bin/xfig" you can see it and yet when you do a "which
xfig" or try to execute the application (even fully qualified), no joy
(command not found). Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Dave
