[OpenAFS] kernel module on 2.6.9 amd64

2004-10-26 Thread Andrej Filipcic
Hi, I am trying to install today's cvs on FC3 RC1 amd64. With plain FC3 kernel 2.6.9-1.640, the module can not be loaded since it still requires exported ia32_sys_call_table (defined in afsconfig.h, a configure bug?). I have recompiled the kernel with sys_call_table and ia32_sys_call_table exp

The client does not run on any flavor of netbsd. Most of the code is there, but no one has stepped up to do the work. ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info

So, at the risk of starting something here, I am going to ask what other peoples experiences are with placing /usr/local in AFS and sharing among machines of same @sys type (much like the AdminGuide suggests). We've always run that way. The biggest problem, at least on OpenBSD, is that po
