Re: [OpenAFS] Need help with translator
I don't think the translator code gets built by default, and your error suggests it's not compiled in. Try removing or commenting out the line that defines AFS_NONFSTRANS in src/config/param.linux26.h and rebuilding. Thanks Marc that did the trick. Now to make sure it works like our production translator.

Now to make sure it works like our production translator. Thanks again for your help. At this point, it's only fair to point out that the problems with building the Linux NFS translator on recent kernels means that it gets very little love, or testing. It also seems very unlikely that the Linux kernel community will provide the interfaces that we require in the future. So, the translator in it's current form is a bit of a dead end. Please consider this before you deploy it in a production environment! There have been proposals made for implementing a user-space translator, which would free us from kernel politics. At present, I'm not aware of anyone with the right combination of time, money and interest to take this work forwards.

Re: [OpenAFS] Need help with translator
The changes in the kernel that makes us unable to build the NFS translator appeared in 2.6.29. So I would guess that SLES 11 (no SP) would work (2.6.27), but that SLES 11 SP1 (2.6.32), OpenSUSE 11.3 (2.6.34) or anything newer would not. Marc I tried with SLES 11 (no SP) and still get the same error. Is there anything else I can try to get this to work? Any help is appreciated.

Re: [OpenAFS] Need help with translator
Do you think if I use SLES 11 SP1 it will work? What version do you suggest
using?
Thanks,

the interesting question is going to be what kernel version OpenSuSE
11.3 is; i suspect it's one new enough that the
structures and functions needed to support the NFS translator are no
longer exported.
