Lines: 16 In-reply-to: greendog@max.physics.sunysb.edu's message of 20 Oct 90 00:56:35 GMT It is a NFS server that Matt was apparently working on, but is not really ready for production use I assume considering that it is not documented. However, I have tried it and it seems to work OK, but I have not really tested it that much. At the moment I don't remember exactly what I did to use it, but I think the standard dnet.servers fils is ready for it. You need to mount the NFS:(?) handler on the Amiga side and run a command on the Amiga side. Then you can access files on the Sun UNIX or other UNIX that supports NFS. I learned most of this by looking at the code. Maybe Matt can fill us in on more details or the status of his NFS server. -- Alan Bair SPS CAD Motorola, Inc.
