This is the -STABLE list remember. :) Still, good to know that v3 is being worked on and will be in there once all the issues are worked out. (Almost tempted to switch to -CURRENT, but I think I will resist that temptation.) On a side note, I have to say that the SYSV-ish NFS under Linux, though it can export on a per-directory basis, seemed to have its own quirks and problems when I used it. Its been a little while now, but I think I would prefer to live with the tested NFS under FreeBSD than try to hack in the Linux NFS. After all, thats why I run -STABLE.. > Tom -- ________________________________________________________________________ Gavan A. McCormack - tetragon@cyber.com.au - tetragon@bitey.net Cybersource P/L.
