Hmm.. it does depend on what OS the other computers are running (client-side) Personally, I would use FTP, since there are varied clients ( Xdir, Xftp ) as well as the good old console ftp .. but if you require something more seamless, then samba is a good package to install ( that is, if you're running wfw, win95, or winnt on your clients... ) Of course, I don't need a dedicated file server so hopefully you'll get more experienced user's answers as well :) -rob ( www.namodn.com ) ( mailto:robert@namodn.com ) On Wed, 9 Dec 1998, Investigations wrote: > I have yet to find any documents describing how to make FreeBSD-3.0 be a > file-server.
