I would *really* like to do something like that 9pod, and have some convenient way to access the files remotely... I'll probably end up using nfs, unless somebody can help me figure out a good way to do an "import" style mount from non-Plan 9 boxes (a little program on a flash stick?). Any 9pod-like device would of course be able to do "import", and that would be really great if I just had access to some suitable hardware. John -- Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn
