Hi,
I am trying to set up a remote access server. I have the fallowing picture:
Node1 --Internet--Node2---LAN using IP
Node1:
Win2K
VPN connection using PPTP
IP (public) = 129.197.23.232
Node2:

Remote access server (need to set up)
IP (public) = 129.197.244.6

I'm writing a remote block device on FreeBSD 4.6.2
As far as the network part is rather difficult, I don't want to include it
in the kernel module. So I started coding my module with this overall

- the module receives read and write uio re

Hi ,
I was making a new locale for Armenian and it seams that found a bug in
substitute routines.
The problem is, that the colldef with substitution seams to have a buggy
behaviour.
When a locale has a LC_COLLATE defined with a substitution like German 'ß'
which is
substituted with 'ss', then a st

I am unclear why rc.sendmail works the way it works. For instance, in my

sendmail_outbound_flags="-L sm-queue -q30m"

Initially I was going to "fix" the underlying FS (that is, the NFS code).

I'm sorry, the generation number is not changed in your scenario. Thus,
I believe if the sequence of actions on the server is
mv file1 tmpfile
mv file2 file1
mv tmpfile file1
like you described, it's safe to continue

Frankly, I just didn't find any mechanism in the STABLE kernel that
does "timing out" for file handles. Do you mean, it would be nice to have

In linux, there are two functions specifically for removable media drivers (like
floppy & cdrom), namely, check_media_change and revalidate.
Is there a corresponding set of functions in FreeBSD? How do you tell if a diskette

You're right. But it appears to be hard and inefficient to fix NFS for this
(I tried, though). It will certainly require to pass names below VFS.
On the other hand
Terry,

nfs_request() actually calls cache_purge() on ESTALE, and vn_open
