Both :-)

Another hint: I mount pkgsrc via NFS (and have ntpd running), but then
I set

 WRKOBJDIR=/usr/pkgobj
 CREATE_WRKDIR_SYMLINK=no

in /etc/mk.conf (where /usr/pkgobj is on local disk).

This makes pkgsrc use the shared distfiles from NFS, but extract and compile
on local disk.

Actually, that's what I'm doing already, so I'm not compiling on NFS just accessing pkgsrc from it (unlike what I said above :-/). I guess the CREATE_WRKDIR_SYMLINK=no just doesn't create the work symlink to the local objdir (so that you can mount pkgsrc read-only?). I'd not seen that option
before, it looks useful.

Thanks,
