- This would be very nice!! What about something like pcnfs (or pcnfsd I guess
- it would be on the //GS). This looks like a _very_ ambitious project so I
- understand some of the time limitations but I am curious about whether this
- could be done also.

- You know being set up as an NFS client, I could steal some of the .5GB drive
- that the 386 running OS/2 beside me has. Now that would be a good use!
