For this application, why is smbfs better? I'm trying to use a Windows box to accept a backup of FreeBSD filesystems. I therefore am creating a file on an SMB filesystem that doesn't already exist on a FreeBSD filesystem. I'll look into getting smbclient to create a file from stdin, but that thought had not occurred to me. This is a scripted process though, so any complexity of making smbclient do it will be a one-time problem. -- Doug Lee dgl@dlee.org http://www.dlee.org Bartimaeus Group doug@bartsite.com http://www.bartsite.com "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum
