If you're either sharing that box on the network, or using that box to access shares on the network, why would it matter if you had NTFS compiled into the kernel or not? If you're accessing a share on that machine from a linux box, it wouldn't matter what file system it had - NTFS or otherwise - it's a shared network drive, hence readable. Vice-versa - if you're accessing shares on the linux box from the Win2k machine, it wouldn't matter what the file system is - it's a network share hence accessible. Aside from that, there is an NTFS module available on Freshmeat.net that requires nothing from you other than to install the RPM without any magic tricks. http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/ -- Stephen Kuhn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Kuhn Media Australia -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
