There are two ports, /usr/ports/emulators/hfs, and /usr/ports/emulators/hfsutils that give you some degree of HFS compatibility. > Is there a 'mount' command that lets me hook HFS disks up to my unix > filesystem?

Mac OS X uses HFS+, and I'm not sure if the HFS ports support this. OS X can also use good old UFS, but most people don't use that since it's not compatible with Classic. > If nothing works, I can still pump the CD's across the LAN to my Netatalk > test server which does an abolutely wonderful job, coexists nicely with > Samba 2.2.2 and is rock solid.
