   Well, given the comment above, I suppose the following question may
   be out of line, but I'd like to ask anyway.  I see the following lines
   in the .profile file:

case $TTY in
    /dev/console )
        # Mount desired NFS volume(s) to desktop for access by Mac apps
        #dtmount -t nfs -o dtnfs host:remote_path local_path
        #exec /usr/bin/wind
        ;;
    /dev/win* )
        ;;
    * )
        #stty crt
        ;;
esac

   Does this imply that WebTen supports NFS mounting?  Is the performance
   good enough to make it a useful tool for serving remotely mounted
   resources?

                        Thanks,
                        Bill
