I have two computers setup on SuSE 9.2, using NFS to transfer files between them. The desktop is the NFS server and my laptop is the client. The laptop is a dual boot with XP. The laptop has a fat partition that I use to transfer files between Windows and Linux. If the desktop is running I can boot, reboot and shutdown with out problems. If I want to move files from XP to my desktop I need to use XP to move them to the fat partition and then boot into linux on the laptop and then move them to the server. Kind of a pain, but I rarely do it, so it's not a problem for me. Rich
One thing you may want to do, is move your "My Documents" folder, to that FAT partition. It'll save you a step. Also, if you're running XP Pro, you can get the Unix services package from MS, which included NFS.
Thanks James. That sounds like an improvement for my setup. Happy New Year. Rich -- Rich Matson Reno, Nv. USA
