Hi -- Are you addressing that question to me? If so, I'm really not sure I understand your question. What do you mean by "the legacy system"? If so, are you suggesting that perhaps XP can be modified to work with FFS or ext2? The answer to that, I believe, is "no". While proudly not a Windows expert, I believe XP supports only Microsoft filesystems -- ntfs, fat and fat32. As I said in my previous post, pscp and another machine present a simple workaround for this issue. I've got multiple machines, I rsync my home directory from one to the other when I have occasion to use something other than my primary machine, and so it's a simple matter to pscp file from the Windows filesystem to another machine running OpenBSD or Linux (which I run on my old TP 600x, on which OpenBSD doesn't fare too well, discussed in an earlier thread). This is needed very rarely (typically only when I travel and get on the network via wifi, which I do with Windows, just because it's easier) and so it's probably not worth bothering to build a kernel to add ntfs support. /Don > > -Lars
