Just a guess, but maybe the freebsd system doesn't like large reads of directorys - a number of BSD systems don't. There is a way to turn this off on Solaris in /etc/system, but I don't remember what it is (someone will post I hope). In the mean time, try adding rsize=1024 to the mount options - this will do it, but will probably hit performance too. -- Andrew Gabriel Home: Andrew@cucumber.demon.co.uk Consultant Software Engineer Work: Andrew.Gabriel@net-tel.co.uk
