Hi All!
I'm pleased to report that I have made two releases of Linux-AFS
available to MIT and US-Domestic Transarc Customers. For those of you
International users, do not dispair -- these releases will be
available to you in a couple days, as soon as Transarc personnel can
copy my distributions over to the export directory.
The new releases are only for Linux/x86 (I'm still working on
sparc-linux, and I dont have access to Linux/axp). The two releases
are:
2.0.11-2 -- this fixes the general protection fault which
happened during large data transfers. It also hopefully fixes the
"chmod g+s" bug, so you should now be able to make programs setgid!
2.0.12 -- this is a port to Linux 2.0.12. It has all the
bugfixes that 2.0.11-2 has, except this works with the 2.0.12 Linux
kernel.
To get Linux-AFS, you need to follow the appropriate instructions. If
you are at MIT, you can get it directly:
attach afsuser
cd /mit/afsuser/sipb-dist/linux
If you are not at MIT, you need to contact your AFS Site Contact.
Your site contact should authenticate to transarc and grab Linux-AFS
from the appropriate directory:
klog -c transarc.com
cd /afs/transarc.com/public/afs-contrib
cd bin/linux.client # domestic
cd bin.export/linux.client.export #international
<grab everything in sight>
If you are not already a subscriber, you should get added to the
Linux-AFS mailing list, [EMAIL PROTECTED] To get added, send mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask to be subscribed. If you are at MIT
you can add yourself:
blanche linux-afs -a $USER
If you find problems in Linux-AFS, such as a kernel oops, please do
the following:
* combine /usr/src/linux/System.map and /usr/tmp/zModule.map
(you will need to hand-edit out the empty lines in zModule.map)
* Use ksymoops (found in /usr/src/linux/scripts).. Feed it the
combined system mapfile from above and the oops information.
* Send both the original oops and the output of ksymoops to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
* wait.
Thanks! I hope you enjoy using Linux-AFS!
