Bruce,

Which would give me the highest throughput? Putting AFP on a Unix server or an NFS client on the Mac workstation? We're wanting to run GigE over fiber from high-end Macs (and PCs). I'd rather go with a known (proven) commercial solution. Ethershare from Helios sounds pretty good. <http://www.helios.de/products/ES/EtherShare.html>
