I don't run a mixed network (I don't do Windows) or own Apple anything myself so I don't know anything about that. Though it wouldn't surprise me if Apple could NFS with Linux. It is just BSD they stole^H^H^H^H^H use isn't it? If there is one thing Linux is about it is networking.
NFS does work with Apple. I've found ssh to be equally fast, but this is
over a wireless network. (One can also use smb.)

Apples userland (for newcoemrs, more or less everything that isn't the

least paying lip service to giving back, to the community.
