Secondly, I am now using NFS for the first time. I hear that the "permissions denied" problem for allowing world/other access rights is related to running a "secure" system; I have no need for security at all, so is there some way I can configure the server to just get around this problem without having to upgrade past 0.1? (Sort of related to the first question... I'm not much of a newest-and-greatest-version person.) THANK YOU!! e-mail would be nice, but i'm probably gonna start following this movement again... frison@eskimo.com
