Post the mount command you're using and the errors you see, and it should be fixable. Maybe also the output from fdisk for that drive. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: FAT32/NTFS, external hard drive issue
nfs client...i like the sound of that. I could use Samba, but the idea is that I want to be able to grab files direct from BSD at USB2.0 rates. I guess I could use gigabit ethernet for this nfs client idea. it sounds like more of a challenge than samba. --- Brian McCann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is this between 2 different PCs?
