I've been wondering about the same thing. A value that is appropriate for the AFS implementation that's in the Linux kernel tree may be easier to get through. (And no, on the whole I don't think client software should care which AFS implementation happens to be loaded into the kernel at the moment. For those who really want to know that, there is always "rxdebug -version localhost afs3-callback".) How about "AFS3", 0x33534641 ? The correct header to add this in appears to be <linux/magic.h> (I'm looking at linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git, last modified 6 hours ago). _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
