i figured that if you use filesystems and protocols most native to the mac os you´ll get the best results in stability on the client side, that´s why i thought of HFS. but ext4 seems to do the job well. i´ll definitely checkout samba too. do you also serve homedirs to them? had any issues?
Thanks, Wessel

Sorry it didn't work out for you. Linus, for one, has a pretty poor opinion of HFS in general.....and I'm not thrilled with it myself, due to some issues I had with Tiger on a PowerMac G4 and heavily corrupted filesystems, journaled or not. And I have some of the 'rescue' tools like DiskWarrior, and I've still lost some data. Hopefully your experience with ext4 will work out better. Mac OS X does very well with SMB/CIFS shares, too, if AppleTalk doesn't work out for you. (I run Mac OS X here in a few areas, and even Tiger works well with a Samba server, but I haven't tried any ACL's with it). _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

While I have no personal experience with it, I did notice that Apple supports NFS with kerberos authentication which is documented on their support site. It might be worth looking into.
