Hi James, Have you found this document : http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00789086/PDF/a_survey_of_dfs.pdf On a related matter, I'd like to host my own file server on a dedicated box so that I can access my working files from serveral locations. I'd like it to be fast and secure, and I don't mind if the files are replicated on each workstation. What would be the better tools for this ? -- Hervé
