yes security risk. MacOS is not a secure OS. furthermore i know of no network filesystem that has such behavior. if you execute a shell script sitting on NFS its executed on whatever machine you executed it, NOT the NFS server. imagine the implications otherwise... > I’m only using debian with netatalk on my LAN, for doing some stuff I never > managed to do with AppleScript... GNU/Linux is not MacOS, its not an extension to MacOS either. deal with it. what you have setup is simply a file server, if the server were a MacOS file server it would also not allow this. what you are looking for is a workstation, i would suggest installing debian on your workstation, or perhaps using a remote X11 session. unfortuantly X servers for MacOS are both scarce and very very slow. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
