It allows someone logged on to the server from a client to access the floppy drive of the client. I use it with mtools. Install mtools on the server, add this line to the /etc/mtools.conf file: drive a: file="$DISPLAY" remote 1.44m mformat_only Then, from a terminal window you can use the mtools: mdir a: mcopy file a: mcopy "a:*.*" . etc. Also, in a KDE konqueror window you can access the floppy (via mtools) with: floppy:/a There are probably other ways as well. -- Norman Gaywood, Systems Administrator School of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: +61 (0)2 6773 2412 http://turing.une.edu.au/~norm Fax: +61 (0)2 6773 3312 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
