Hi Edd,

I was curious if you ever found a decent answer for your question on 
secure network file systems?

The only way I can think of doing it is kerberos and NFSv4.

You might want to ask Peter Hessler (SFOBUG President For Life) or Rick 
MacKlem (NFSv4 guru). I've cc'd both of them.


Also, I noticed your work on TeXLive on ports@ and think you deserve 
more than a few kudos for it. I even checked out your homepage and 
porting guide (texlive_port_doc-20070623.pdf).

Pg. 11
  "OpenBSD already has a texi2html package in the ports tree, so do not  
   build it."

  "texinfo is not built because the old teTeX package did not build it. 
   I do not know the reason for this."

Some of the mystery may be solved by realizing we have some TeX 
utilities already in the base system, in particular, texinfo(5) and 
makeinfo(1) (/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo). The texi2html package/port 
is somewhat redundant since makeinfo(1) is already there and it 
supports HTML output. Note: there's a few problems with the XML output 
of makeinfo(1) that kili@ recently resolved but at the moment, the 
patches have not been committed (see bugs@ system/5518).

You'd have better chances of dividing by zero than getting any useful 
information out of me about (Le)TeX. I've never studied it, and don't 
use it, but I must say, I've always been curious about it.

kind regards,
JCR
