Hi All Most of the answer is contained in this archive http://www.sunmanagers.org/pipermail/summaries/2001-March/000375.html Thanks to Adam Mazza, for the link. I received answers from many others including those who have successfully tried it, too many to list, but thanks to you for your time and input. The bottom line is that it works fine providing you do not try to mount any one partition on both systems at the same time. It was also suggested to load the RSM software on both systems. Thanks again.
