Hello, thanks Juergen. Unfortunately there is no home directory and no sub directories under /usr/compat/linux which can be removed. I hope that this problem will be solved when I switch to 5.x some day, like the random sudden freezes of the complete OS :( best wishes, Stefan --On Saturday, March 27, 2004 16:37:10 +0100 Juergen Lock <nox@jelal.kn-bremen.de> wrote: > In article <29370000.1077528903@sub00261.sub.uni-goettingen.de> you write: >> Hello, >> >> (I hope this is the appropriate group, I posted the question already to >> "questions" and to some news groups.) >> >> I mount two NetWare shares within /etc/fstab at my FreeBSD desktop >> (using mount_nwfs) and I >> noticed in the past that linux applications like mulberry, acroread, >> etc. can not access >> these volumes.
