HP-UX 10.20 supposedly does NFS3, but it sure won't do it with FreeBSD 3.2-R. The only way I could get them to be nice to each other was to drop back to NFS2, so for now it looks like it's ftp for moving big files. Fortunately this doesn't happen often. In the long run the HP systems are going away, so that will solve that. :-) -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
