Hrmm, I know the Linux end supports tunneling protocols; but it's been so long since I used Windows that I'm not certain it can yet. I seem to remember something about a 'Microsoft Virtual Network Adapter' that did it; Is there a linux box where the Windows machine is? You can try enabling NFS version 3 in your kernel configuration to see if that fixes the windows NFS clients. -- It won't be long before the CPU is a card in a slot on your ATX videoboard Craig Kelley -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.isu.edu/~kellcrai finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP block
