Another feature NTFS has that ext3 doesn't is "file streams". In NTFS Files (and directories) can have streams in them, e.g. foo.txt could have foo.txt:bar.txt -- I believe they're somewhat like "resource forks" or "extended attributes" in other filesystems. Google if you want to know more. -Andrew -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
