As I intend to use this as dedicated file/print/samba server on a mixed small office network, I thought it a good idea to dedicate one drive to /usr/home.

Please help... > Pieter Assuming both drives are mounted okay, and I don't know much about Samba - especially if it "honors" or "comprehends" symbolic links, but you could always do something like `ln -sf /dev/ad1s1e /dev/....` etc. man ln Hope this helps in no small way ;-) -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA +1-413-403-9555 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
