I'll second that. All of your files would be accessed in the clear, where anyone could intercept them. Security aside, running NFS mounts over a potentially slow network (imagine <= 56k) would be excruciatingly painful. Dan, you could try using gftp in combination with sftp if you just need to transfer files back and forth. Carey -- ====================================================================== <> Carey F.
