> What do you want to do with this filesystem? Aways a good question. I have a bunch of nonidentical PCs running SL4.x connected by gigabit. People can log into any of them and see their home space. Currently I do this by having two of them as file servers, each with a mirrored disk pair. Ideally I would like to have a single virtual "/home" filesystem which I could add physical disks to and which is resilient to any one node being down. Needless to say, there's no budget for any fancy hardware. John
