hi.

first of all: i'm not a unix expert.

i just installed cfs-1.4.0beta2 on my freebsd4 box. actually it work's, but 
not exactly the way it should, i suppose. so i have some questions.

(1) i don't use the amd (actually i'm not sure how to configure it), but 
added the mount command at the end of the cfsd startup script instead.
ok or not? & if not, where can i find an introduction, what amd is & how it 
works? (i read the man pages, but wihout the basics ...)

(2) i need to enable the 'normal' nfsd. otherwise
#/sbin/mount -o -U,port=3049,intr localhost:/null /crypt
leads to
localhost:/null: RPCMNT: clnt_create: RPC: Programm not registert
is this a result of (1)? & do i really need to enable nfsd?

(3) i experienced problems with file & directory names that contained spaces 
or special characters. is there anything i can do about it? besides not to 
use such names.


thanks for your help.

kind regards
platanthera
