Can someone point me to something that describes what an NFS is and how it works?
NFS stands for Network File System, it allows you to mount filesystems from other machines. Rather than me spend ages typing a description of how it works (I wrote about it way back when I was Uni in a Distributed Systems exam - ah, memories...), there's a lot of documentation at http://nfs.sourceforge.net/ -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 9.0).
