I'd say yes to integrate this service, because it's a basic connectivity service. In this case a very small package, that doesn't cost many K's in the source tree. If you do so, I'd recommend to add a sample /etc/rpc.pcnfsd file into /etc. You can find some examples in the manpage of pcnfsd. One should set a sample uid-range and perhaps an example of sharing the default lineprinter lp. andreas@knobel.gun.de /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ - Support Unix - aklemm@wup.de - \/ ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz apsfilter - magic print filter 4lpd >>> knobel is powered by FreeBSD <<<
