We still do not have file locking over NFS. That's a major piece. In general, though, I think FreeBSD's NFS is shaping up pretty well. It is certainly much, much better then any other OS out there except solaris. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
