Greetings Some time ago I briefly played with NFS. More recently with Samba. What I am wondering is if NFSv4 is already integrated into Centos 4 from upstream. Reference: http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/6331/1/ if not, is there a timeline? Centos 5 ? and... is or can NFS be a compatible yet better replacement for Samba? thanks - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net

It is, however, a better networked filesystem for Unix. -- Matthew Miller mattdm at mattdm.org <http://mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
RHEL 5 according the release notes has nfs v4. Samba is best for windows clients IME. If you are sharing between linux/unix hosts then use nfx.
