No. AFAIK, Rtools has nothing to do with Sweave.sty. It is the step 4 in the article you cited that solves this problem: 4. Copy Sweave.sty from share/texmf in the R installation directory to some place in your LaTeX path. Regards, Yihui -- Yihui Xie Phone: 515-294-2465 Web: http://yihui.name De

It seems that I've found the solution - the "backup original document when saving" option must be switched off. Then it is OK even with NFS mounted home. There must be a bug in the procedure of renaming the orig. file when this is on NFS+being deep into the directory hierarchy
