But what I was wondering is what the free disk space waste is on an NFS file system? Freebsd is supposed to use NFS for its file system and since I don't lile to deal with file systems more than I have to, it never interested me before. But I know that one of the problems that the MSfat systems have issues with is lost disk space due to clustering. NTFS has the same issues. But does the freebsd file system have those issues and if so, to what extent? I'm just asking cause I'm not even sure where to start searching for such answers. Thanks for the tips. :) And no, curiousity only kills cats. Blackouts kill geeks. :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
