One quick caveat - properly unmount volumes when rebooting and such. Due to one of those things that somehow grew beyond its original intent, we had a network of about 15 machines all mounting each other. NFS chokes when a mount it expects to be there, isnt. it takes it several minutes to give up. One machine rebooting in such a big spiderweb cluster can cause massive problems without proper attention to cleanly unmounting and remounting shares. And 'cascading' is usually such a lovely word... gedanken You might try an NFS mount between the too. mount_nfs -L server:/path /local/path (FreeBSD) -- gedanken
