Hi Mark, I have once known how to do it, told by friends in the Linux world. Lost the exact info, but it's basically: create /etc/exports on the machine you want to make available. In there you set up what directorie(s) you want to share (don't recall the exact syntax, sorry, still looking for it myself) Then on the 'receiving' machine make a directory, e.g. /mnt/solaris and there you then can mount: mount solaris:<dir that's shared> /mnt/solaris It is something along these lines, hope this helps you further Paul -- We are Microsoft of Borg.
