NFS is more supported by client systems as well so you can consolidate a bit. Since the use case is wide open permissions, you don't have to worry about permissions as much. SMB does much finer grain ACL permissions and it's harder to map. I think AFS is too. AFS is more alien on a Unix server then Samba. There are/is an AFS client for Windows, but I don't know of one for Linux. Back in the day with Appletalk, the protocols were fairly chatty as well. If you want to explore more protocols, things like SSHFS or WebDAV could be used with varying success. I've done sshfs on Linux and via swish on windows. I think it can be used on MacOSX, but I wouldn't recommend it. > -- > Chip Marshall <c...@2bithacker.net> > http://2bithacker.net/ >
