Not sure about this stuff, but under the commercial UN*X implementation (i.e. AIX), IBM has another product called distributed services which provides some minimal NFS-like support. This product allows you, via an Ethernet/PC-Net link between machines, to mount file systems resident on other machines. For more info you are probably better off calling your IBM rep. If you are using the ACIS UN*X, don't know. Good luck... -- David Langdon Rabbit Software Corp.
