I shared world-building for years (often doing it on my workstation, since it often out-CPU'd the servers ;). I did it on 2.2.x, 3.x, and 4.x, without ever really hitting any problems; just do the build in one place, then NFS-export /usr/src and /usr/obj. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
