Minix-fs:       14 or 30 - choose when you make the filesystem.
                           (30-char names only on 0.99pl7 (I think)  or later).
extfs:          255
ext2fs:         255
xiafs:          248
NFS:            depends!  You currently can't interrogate the server's limit.
ISO-CD          255
msdos           8+3
proc            Does it really matter?!

Cheers,
 Stephen Tweedie.
