well, right now i have one physical server, running 4 jails (my web,  
mail, and 2 dns).  my file server, is actually my desktop.  i would  
like to transfer this data to my server (so that the data lives on the  
RAID), and just do a new jail that i serve my files from (also,  
transferring build duties over to this physical server, via the  
file-server jail).

i still need to test if it still works the same (im guessing yes, but  
i really dont know until i try it) to build my world and kernels that  
i need from a jailed host, but i have a long way to go on that  
project.  also need to make sure samba still works as expected, and a  
couple other things.

all, so i dont have to make sure my desktop is onlie if i need to  
access some files  :).

cheers,  (and first list-post, from my new horde install!  woot!)
