moin, moin,

Craig's Q about nfs reminds me to ask if anybody has a preferred alternative
to nfs.

I'm thinking about playing with openafs. I don't want samba. The remote
filesystem over ftp might be OK as long as it can do passive ftp. I'd either
setup ftp to use ssl or tunnel the whole thing over ssh. Not sure how that
would work for home dirs, though.

SGI's remote journaled filesystem would be ultracool, but I think they want
major buckage for it and it's really overkill for what I need :).

ciao,

der.hans
