I have a somewhat different solution. All my machine computers are shared to this machine via an sshfs link, so they are mounted to /sshnet/GO7004, etc. So what I do is set the nc_files path in the machine.ini file here in the simulator, to point to the nc_files directory on the machine I am currently writing gcode for. This works I think because I am first user on all the machines, so there aren't any differing user permissions to deal with. After fighting with NFS for a decade, sshfs is a breath of fresh air, once setup, it Just Works(TM). I was amazed that I could reboot one of those machines from here while logged into it (using ssh keys, no login required) with an ssh -Y link, and found I didn't even have to refresh the mount of it on this machine, unless sonething changes the ssh keys. Finally, a file sharing system that WORKS! Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
