A silly question: Is there a way to boot the Mac from the file server? We want to get rid of all our local hard drives and booting the Mac with floppy is just too painful. It would be nice if the system folder is located on the file server!!! Another question: I redirected the WordPerfect temporary file folder to point to a NOVELL server folder instead of the local hard drive system folder. The Mac died. Can this be done? Thanks a million in advance. -- Ken Wong UUCP: ...!{ubc-vision,uw-beaver}!uvicctr!kwong APRAnet: kwong@uvicctr.nrl-css.arpa CDNnet: kwong@uvunix.uvic.cdn Internet: kwong%uvunix.uvic.ca@relay.ubc.ca BITNET: kwong@uvunix.bitnet I would rather be at the top of Qomolungma
