NOTE if anyone knows how to fix the authserv.sock error please let me know, i've contacted the mailing list, but so far no replies. so i'm asking you guys. what do you use when you need a secure NFS-like "thing"?? or am i wrong in assuming that NFS is insecure? please cc me, i'm not a member of the list nathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
