I won't touch NFS now that I've got rid of it, except for read-only
access to files that are available to system:anyuser anyway, but for
anything else, such as the user's constant need to write to the system,
it's a no go. Particularly since the next_mach30 client does exist.
All I want to know is how do I get my hands on it.
BTW Harald, replacing the computer with another type of computer is
not an option even if money wasn't an issue. Apparently, the user has
chassis-locked licensed software on the NeXTStation that he still
needs to use.
(All of this only came about since the NeXTStep NetWare client barfs
on servers >=5.0. If there is a way to access NetWare 5 servers from
NeXTStep 3.3, that would avoid the requirement for using AFS, but I
think that's even less likely.)
