Rather likely -- and not SMP-safe, either. You can certainly use it in emergencies, e.g., to deal with lost administrator passwords. If you find yourself needing it, carefully check the volume afterwards. > Anyone know when write support will be available? As you may know, code was present for write support (but usually disabled) in the first NTFS driver, the one that wasn't SMP-safe. The replacement NTFS driver so far lacks write code entirely. -- Cheers, "My file system's got no nodes!" Rick Moen "How does it shell?"
