variance components

Dear All,

I need to calculate the variance components in a mixed effect model (one
fixed and one random effect) with REML (maximizing the proportion of
the likelihood that does not depend on the fixed effects). In S+ there is
the varcomp function, but I would like to do it in R. Is there a way to do
that?

Thanks!
Katalin

Have you considered "lme" (documented especially in Pinhiero and Bates, 
Mixed Effects Models in S and S-Pus)?
