I'm finding it hard to get any browser (but I'm really interested in

"file:/home/janssen/foo.html" with impunity, where /home/janssen is an
automounted NFS directory. This doesn't seem to work at all on Mac OS X.
"file:///home/janssen/foo.html" doesn't work either.

Does "/home/janssen/foo.html" exist?

Default home path in OSX is "/Users/[username]"

An alternative, prettier looking NFS mount path would be "/Volumes/[mount name]".

HTH,
