I posted a request here for info about two weeks ago with no response, so I'll try again. The original query was about how file server performance was measured. What do claims of "X" users supported really mean, and how are those measurements made. And how do NFS and Novell compare on the same hardware, like a 386 or 486 running either Novell 3.11 or Interactive with NFS. There must be people out there who know answers to at least some of these questions! And just to broaden the scope, what are peoples experiences out there with Interactive's NFS. I have observed that the documentation has errors and is incomplete, and the authentication doesn't work the way it ought to. What is of greater concern is I am seeing slower NFS file service performance than I had expected, and getting what I think are a lot of NFS errors. -- Rich Goldschmidt: uunet!fjcp60!golds or golds@fjc.gov Commercialization of space is the best way to escape the zero-sum economy.
