I ran into the same problem =) I started hacking AFS to get userland stuff working, but put a dent in my head banging off the wall. I did manage to get it to compile, and started in with lint but that was about as far as I got. :) It is one of those things where everyone if they get time should add a hack here and there to make it 64-bit safe when they see something. It isnt going to get done in a one weekend hack-a-thon until more is cleaned up. One of the bigger problems I ran into was because stuff is compiled more then once, you don't necessarily see the error right away. It gets lost in the rest of the compiler warnings that might be come from a different section of the compile. (just because it compiles cleanly doesnt mean it works and vice versa.) -------------------------------------- Sean O'Malley, Information Technologist Michigan State University ------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
