Thank you for that clear explanation, now I understand the basics at least. It would seem that the Ubuntu 'owfs' package sets up owserver plus owhttpd and owftpd but doesn't by default run owfs. I think this is probably what caught me out, I maybe ran owfs manually and then lost it at a reboot. Thanks again for all the help and bearing with my questions. -- Chris Green ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?
