All, In mtools there is a daemon called floppyd this allows you to create a listener that allows for writing to a floppy from any location (or reading) on the net on the fly by IP number and port. Useful but floppies are kind of small. Unlike doing NFS or Samba mounting it's less susceptible to things like boxes hanging if something goes down etc. It also allows for doing things like accessing multiple locations on the fly.
Now for the question does anyone know of a similar kind of daemon for other devices (cdrom usb etc etc.) James
