Yeah, previous discussions usually involved using that at least in some way. Using it as-is I thought had the problem that you could only run one, on a predefined port. Or if you can run multiple ones on any port, how do you know which one corresponds to the AFS mount you want? I just thought using a unix socket would be easier for that (I thought that was your idea from eakc, but I may be confusing things). But it could also sorta work to just assume there's only one, or just have a magic file that said what localhost port to use or something. Also note that rmtsysd I believe is ifdef'd out in the ukernel afsd stuff, since last time I looked at it I think it wasn't compiling for some reason. Assuming it still doesn't work out of the box, that's another thing someone's going to need to look at to get this working. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
