Heh... maybe you can kill two birds with one stone here. What if you create /cdrom, /floppy, ... as symblinks to /auto/cdrom, /auto/floppy, ...? Then whenever you access /cdrom, the kernel's gonna try to access /auto/cdrom, which will then tell autofs to check the CDROM and mount it if necessary.

hi all, i just learned how to configure and use autofs. works great except for a few minor glitches. one of the minor glitches is that the mount point, say, /auto/cdrom, disappears until the filesystem gets mount. for example, this produces no output: $ ls /auto/ however, this produces the

I think I've heard of such program. Sorry but I can't remember what it's called or where I heard it. I vaguely seem to recall hearing about it from Brian Lavender but that's probably just in my imagination. Have you asked it on Saclug list? Couldn't hurt. -Mark On Sun, 29 Jun 2003, Rod Roark

[vox-tech] Compiling C into Java bytecode?

2003-06-29 Thread Bill Kendrick
Okay, just out of curiosity. Say one wanted to create a 'Java application' (e.g., something that runs in a web browser, cell phone or PDA JVM), but they wanted to write the application using the C /language/. This is possible, is it not? If so, are there some tools for this under Linux? (I see
