I don't need to be educated that there are other filesystems available =
for
NT and W2k, but who would seriously consider to use them on a server in=
 a
business environment?! What I meant is, that there aren't any filesyste=
ms
out there like Veritas filesystem (that Veritas has developed but are n=
ot
allowed by MS to release) for NT and W2k that either give better
performance or more sophisticated features (like the Veritas FS). The f=
act
that I don't have MCSA, MCSE or whatever in my signature doesn't mean t=
hat
I don't know what I'm talking about.

Cheers

Frank
