Seems perfectly reasonable to me. well, i still think i know more than him (and you) about MY problem. i am the most qualified person to talk about my problems, and if someone thinks im a dickhead for thinking it, toughs for him. > Using "NFS" and "security" in the same thought process without the > phrase "has no" in between reveals a rather disturbing lack of clue on > your part. but again, if you had hundreds of users, whose work you had to keep backed up (and allow them to restore files online), what other solution would you use?? we use several network appliance machines, exporting users' home dirs via nfs. no better solution there. to sum things up, we currently cannot use entranced. we'd really like to. we would patch it ourselves if we had more time to read the code as always, the expected followup would say "dont expect anyone else to scratch your itch". we dont expect it, and can make do till (if..) someone else will fix it. if you dont consider it broken, then toughs for us, but please let us know. cheers, -- ======================================================================== nir. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
