http://www.ma.utexas.edu/users/stirling/computergeek/lufs.html Probably more secure implementation than NFS, especially if the remote filesystem is only excessable via a public network (the internet). However NFS is by far the most documented and thus supported method for this. Oh and there is smbfs to mount MS file systems, but I don't really recommend it unless it's the only way (IE you need to mount a windows share). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
