Also, I have found that NFS works nicely between my A2000 and my PC linux box, thought you typically don't want to burn the RAM on the 8 processes it is going to default to. Apache, there are some ways to get it to not use up all the RAM resources of the system too. If anyone is interested, I could put together a list of apps that I have configured to make the Amiga still be a useful box? --Lance
