I'm not using nfs...but cygwin. The file 'zero' is in the same dir as the file 'null'.

For other direction write to 'null' and read from /dev/zero locally. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
