Case-insentivity can be a problem of course, but 10.3 introduced case-sensitivity as an option (for a price ... some disk utils would not work with such volumes, like DiskWarrior). I've had other HFS+ problems, specifically directory corruption and other such things that don't render a file unreadable so much as lost. -- Chris Nandor pudge@xxxxx.xxx http://pudge.net/ Open Source Technology Group pudge@xxxx.xxx http://ostg.com/There's stuff above here
