When I was a University of California student, the news spool and (depending on the system) the mail spool were both NFS mounts on the system I used -- sdcc12 and sdcc13/17, respectively, for any other UCSD students who want to reminisce. Some of the freenets used, and still use, NFS for a similar purpose, and the university I later worked for had a couple Sun systems that did this for specific departments although it was primarily a NetWare shop initially. That said, on my own systems, the only NFS server is set up so it can be a swap device for the Dreamcast. ;) -- ------------------------------------ personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- One can live in Paris ... on just grief and anguish. -- Henry Miller -------
