And I was wondering if FreeBSD had such a thing (I am lacking the experience to code such a beast myself, though I am a programmer). I was just drooling at the prospect of NFS and remote X windows running at SCSI bus speed (presumably on SCSI card 2) can 2 CPU's amicably share a SCSI device (like a shared drive), or would NFS be the way to go? TIA Jason he who can finally afford toys :)_
