How do you > get it to mount back up with out having to run the mount command again? You're slightly off course. Read man 8 amd and see if that helps. Also, section 27.3.5 of the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-nfs.html If you get stuck on specifics, ask here. > Also I noticed while playing with it that the device assignment keeps > changing each time it is plugged back into the system.

Are you umounting it before you remove the drive? If not, then the drive is still mounted from a previous connection (even though it can't be accessed) so the system has to grab the next available device. This will go away once you have amd running. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com
