I think the current settings are OK, as there can still presumably be a button on the main menu to apply the current setting .. this would just activate all exports that have been marked as active. > - The fields: Make symbolic links relative (link_relative), Deny access to > directory (no_access), Don't trust UIDs (squash_uid) and Don't trust GIDs > (squash_gid) don't exist on Linux in NFSv3 nor in NFSv4. > Do they exist for other OS?

The module is only for Linux, so you don't have to worry about other OSs. They certainly work with NFSv2 though .. Perhaps a good solution would be to detect the version of NFS in use, and hide those options if they are not supported? - Jamie ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
