Hi everybody.
I've made a preference pane for MacOSX for the OpenAFS client. This
preference pane is available at:
/afs/dia.uniroma3.it/users/m/milicchio/public/openafs-pane.zip
or via anonymous CVS over SSH (user anonymous, password anonymous)
CVSROOT set to :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs
Some notes:
- Note it is not completely working, a bug I discovered is when it is
deselected and re-selected, it seems that all widgets get to NULL.
I'm not a cocoa programmer, so anyone that knows why this happens is
very welcome :)
- Another issue is the button Start/Stop which is useless, but it was
useful to debug the code. It will disappear.
- I have no error checking, probably it will come, and probably we
need a setuid helper tool.
Few modifications are needed though.
- /private/etc/hostconfig
Must contain a line OPENAFS=-YES- (or -NO-) in order to set the
start-at-boot flag, like all other services. It makes no sense to
have a service that cannot be turned on and off at boot like all the
other (IMO).
- OpenAFS (script in StartupItems)
Must be modified in order to take care of the start-at-boot flag:
StartService()
{
# Start AFS at boot?
if [ "${OPENAFS:=-YES-}" = "-YES-" ]; then
echo "Starting OpenAFS"
else
echo "Skipping startup"
exit 1
fi
Any comments (and any help) are appreciated :)
PS. You should modify the source code to make it work using the real
directories, since I used some file in the project location. Anyway,
it's easy since you just need to uncomment a portion of the header.
