If you don't need to do it often (and you probably don't :) ), you could always just add the lines to exports and kill -hup mountd when you are ready to use it, then remove them again afterwards. If you need it even more secure than using a seperate filesystem completely for the "network" copies of /usr/src and /usr/obj, you could always use a seperate box to hold the exportable systems. Something's got to be readable and writable. :) Later...... <Doug> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
