We are thinking of using NFS as a transparent mechanism for infrequent file transfer over an ordinary 'phone line. One possible setup is a pair of SpiderBridge/TrailBlasers. Has anyone any comments to offer over the advisability of such a setup? The connection is designed to be sequential, infrequent and low volume, but I'm not sure whether the NFS overheads will hammer it so much that any connection will suffer, no matter how small. Advice gratefully received. -- Harry Fearnhamm, ,---.'\ EMAIL: loki@moncam.uucp Monotype ADG, (, /@ )/ ...!ukc!acorn!moncam!loki Science Park, /( _/ ') VOICE: +44 (0)223 420018 Cambridge, \,`---' FAX: +44 (0)223 420911 CB4 4FQ, DISCLAIMER: Nothing is True.
