It's possible this might have changed recently, but versions I have used do not support NFSv3 or TCP mounts. Even if this has changed recently, it can hardly be considered mature, proven code. I have also had terrible problems with various RPC servers crashing or becoming unresponsive after a period of use, requiring frustrating admin intervention on the server. For your sanity and the sake of your users, just don't do it :) Kris --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+pX48Wry0BWjoQKURApXiAKDh5KfgZXQSwrCwVBYmKERJdFjm8gCgoOPP 3qG4iKEWaNggT1BBcKJk7e0= =uryI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g--
