Canada V5A 1S6 Fax: (604) 291-4242 For really large file servers, you might want to talke to Distributed Computing Solutions (DISCOS), P.O. Box 85608, San Diego, CA 92186-9784 (619) 455-3755. Their UniTree product can handle very large amounts of data and has reasonable interfaces. Buddy Bland Oak Ridge National Lab aib@ornl.gov This is my own opinion. Not that of my employer.
