Ok, fair enough. The comment I made was not meant to be a 'you dont know
this', but more of a 'surely this is common knowledge'. Well, that was the
intention, anyway.
Again, additional security maybe, filesystem-awareness lobotomization,
definitely.
Although, with the supposed (I've never seen it) addition of ACL like
structures to NTFS, or some such.. these things may some day start
levelling out.
Going back, lets still see that it would be better to set up a native
network file system, than to use one from another not-quite compatibile
environment?
