I found some old e-mail that suggested this but I do not know if this is still the case. 2) Same for NFS locking. I do not see lockd on my 2.1.5 distribution. 3) Does anybody know of a distributed file system that is free (or at least reasonably priced - a few hundred bucks perhaps) and works with FreeBSD? I am aware of NFS. :-) How about AFS or something similar? 4) I am still confused about fast ethernet PCI adapters. Can somebody tell me which ones will work with 2.1.6, and where I can order some [if I need to get older cards. I know where to find current generation cards.]? Thanks in advance, and please CC a copy of the response to me if possible. Tim
