1) Do you know if avira will come out with an antivir that works with
dazukofs?
2) SuSE has a dazuko .src.rpm based on redirfs-0.2 and dazuko 2.3.4.4
(presumably 2.3.5-pre1, to support redirfs), hence it's a little out of date,
plus building it against the current 2.6.25.16 kernel works, but the modules
don't load, with unknown symbol errors. The .src.rpm was originally designed
against 2.6.25.5.
3) Building the tarballs for dazuko 2.3.6-pre2 and redirfs-0.3 works, and the
modules load, but antivir complains "antivir[29092]: Error: Unable to setup
Dazuko parameters" - I get the feeling it can't talk to /dev/dazuko, which has
major 250.
4) I can't get any version of nullfs to compile on openSuSE 11.0. Have you
tried that combination? The error for nullfs 0.0.1 is simpler than later
versions. 0.0.2-0.0.4 errors look similar to:
