However, when using sz to retrieve files from the system, users have been bombarded by long data subpacket errors. Is there something simple that I'm merely overlooking? Also, trying to mount /var/spool/mail from a linux box results in a "successful" mount, but gives me "stale nfs handle" whenever I try to look at the mountpoint. I have tried a symbolic link from /mail to /var/spool/mail, then mounting /mail, but with the same results. Can anyone help me with this? +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Mark Dreyer aka Starcrow | Husband, father, sailor, netsurfer| |http://www.eskimo.com/~starcrow | and player of hackey-sack and | +--------------------------------+ Magic: the Gathering.
