What's everyone's verdict? Also I didn't realize and forgot to mention before that NFS on BSD won't export /home but instead exports the link in /usr/home..... as I had issues with "bad exports line /home" in /var/log/messages! In addition I edited my rc.conf file to include these extra lines as per Google; what's everyone's opinion on them though as I'm a little unsure of what they do (indicated with *): inetd_enable="YES" keymap="us.iso" nfs_server_enable="YES" *nfs_server_flags="-u -t -n 4" rpcbind_enable="YES" *rpcbind_flags="-r" sshd_enable="YES" named_enable="YES" mountd_enable="YES" ntpd_enable="YES" Finally for Bind I don't get why everything has been stuffed into named.conf??? In terms of all root servers etc.... Linux is very different in that a separate dir is created with separate file for root servers. Is there any particular reason for this?? --Kaya
