How do, In a couple of weeks time I'm likely double the size of my FreeBSD installation here, and get another machine to run it on. And I'm planning on using NFS and NIS to ease information maintenance, allow mounting of user home directories and so on. I'm about to go off and get the O'Reilly books, but I was wondering if there's any particular gotchas about FreeBSD's implementation of these two systems above and beyond what's written in the handbook and FAQ. As an example, I recall someone saying that NFS locking code isn't there yet, and I imagine that'll have ramifications for mail delivery if it occurs on exported filesystems.
