I'd like to know that as well. but in case you don't get a good answer, here is how I did to solve the problem -- control what you can control. I.e., switch your local box's your own uid to what NFS'. In situations that you can control both sides, pick a big enough uid for both sides that won't clash with others'. -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
