Thank you for the pointer, it works!! > However if you want to share the same state concurrently from two or > more machines (i.e. keep instances of Evo running on both of them), I'd > say it's likely to be risky. This is not the case, I just want to use evo and other stuff on the new computer with .evolution on an AFS area. The difference is that on the new computer the home directory is not under AFS while the old one was. The AFS directory is backed up so i need to store all my valuable files there, e.g. locally stored mail folders. Are there any other directories you recommend to link to, now I have .evolution and .mozilla linked to the AFS directory. Any other directories to link to, .gnome, .gnome2, .nautilus, etc? > poc > > _______________________________________________ > Evolution-list mailing list > Evolution-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
