With the code that is in the 1.4.1-rc7 file server, this type of patch should no longer be required provided that the client supports UUIDs.Agreed. It might still be useful for clients connecting to old servers. I'm not going to commit it unless there is demand, which I don't expect._______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
If I understand correctly, this patch shortens the client-to-server ping interval to one minute so that the connection stays active as seen by the firewall. I don't quite understand the server side changes, though. In any case, having the ability to run AFS clients on cluster nodes inside their private network to access foreign cells is very much desirable.
Ciao,
