while I have not played with NFSROOT yet.. If you want real security I would look into how the BBLCD is setup. it is a CD-based distribution. i mention it because it does a lot of work in making the system available off a read only media. it would take some work to adapt this system to NFS but i believe it could work. the url is here: http://www.bablokb.de/bblcd/ with some effort I have made a CD that has: SSH server NFS server NFS Client BIND Name server PCMCIA support Firewalling/NAT support it works by creating a .tar.gz file which extracts to the /var filesystem which is on a RAMDISK. the rest is read-only. really nifty. /etc is read only, / is read only .. with this setup you could get by with almost everything read only except home directories. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
