LOL. I like your sense of humour, Jim. With regard to modern filesystems, the intrinsic limitations that you and the previous poster pointed out seem to rule out the LEAN filesystem as well. Am I right in my inference? It's strange, because the LEAN filesystem was designed to work on FreeDOS-32, which is a DOS too, judging by the name. Can someone explain the incongruence. BTW, is FreeDOS-32 dead or what? What I was would be willing to settle for, eventually, is ANY filesystem with extended attributes that can be used from within (Free)DOS. But from what you have told me the prospects do not seem very bright right now... :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
