Re: [Cooker] ReiserFS and NFSv3 together in LM 8.0?
OK, I haven't really been following the cooker/LM8.0 stuff too well, and I couldn't find any reference in the archives about whether the new release is expected to support ReiserFS and NFSv3 (or even v2 for that matter) together out of the box or not. Yup, we have tested the patches on our developement machines (which use to fail with the default kernel). So, will we finally be able to install a Linux server with NIS, NFS, and a journalizing filesystem without having to get too deep into the guts of the OS? yup that's the goal :) OK, how about samba, too. My ultimate goal would be to use a single server which is the NIS domain server and NFS server for the Unix workstations plus act as the Windows Primary Domain Controller which serves home directories to the windows clients. Naturally, all on a ReiserFS. I've managed to get that all working on a L-M 7.0 box, but it took some time to convince everything to play nice, and it still has inexplicable crashes once every few weeks. I'm not afraid of it, but I can't leave it in the hands of an inexperienced system admin. Thanks, Michael

[Cooker] ReiserFS and NFSv3 together in LM 8.0?
OK, I haven't really been following the cooker/LM8.0 stuff too well, and I couldn't find any reference in the archives about whether the new release is expected to support ReiserFS and NFSv3 (or even v2 for that matter) together out of the box or not. Is this a planned/supported configuration? I know I can get it working if I apply the patches and compile a kernel, but I really want something I can just hand to someone without a lot of experience, walk them through a few, and expect them to get it right with only telephone support. So, will we finally be able to install a Linux server with NIS, NFS, and a journalizing filesystem without having to get too deep into the guts of the OS? And if this is answered on the mandrakeforum site forgive me. Thanks, Michael PS. How about the qmail patches for Reiser? Any chance of supplying both qmail and the patch in an rpm we can select? I know the qmail license is a little stifling, but you could make the user run a separate program to install the patch.
