Yes, but only for real emergencies. None of the full-screen editors will work (In

I find the 3215 is no less functional, frankly.
Sure, you can perform emergency repairs, if you know ed or sed, or, my

Yeah, ned is nice. The licensing cost can be an issue with clients,

I've had Rick Troth's cmsfs in SuSE SLES8 (2.4.19 kernel) for some time now. I've
just recently upgraded to SLES8-SP3 with the 2.4.21 kernel.
I took the cmsfs-1.1.8 code and did
make clean
./configure
make
make install
to build it for the new kernel.
When I insmod cmsfs I get
Warning:
I believe Rick has stated that the kernel module part of cmsfs is broken in
2.4, and shouldn't be used at this time. To use the cmsfsxxx commands, it's
not needed. But, from looking at the Makefile, it appears that cmsfsvfs.c
is what makes up the kernel module, so you can put it in there.

The VSWITCH OSA devices are attached to no one. CP will drive them but use
the VM TCPIP stack to initialize the devices. CP uses the *VSWITCH IUCV

While I'm looking at CMS FS (the module, the driver),
should it be installed in /lib/modules/2.4.21/kernel/fs
or in /lib/modules/2.4.21/kernel/fs/cmsfs? Most FS modules
go in a sub-dir. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me,
because most of those appear to have only one file.
(Why have a sub-dir
Sure, Rick, I can test it. Just let me know when and where.
Actually, I found my problem and it wasn't your problem.
If you look back in this string of notes, you'll see I admit to

It also helps if you do
make modules

If there is even one module that is not in a subdirectory, go ahead and do
the same. If they are _all_ in a subdirectory, make one for cmsfs.

My install was done to /lib/modules/2.4.21-83-default/kernel/fs/cmsfs.o in SuSE SLES8
SP3. that's where the ./config wanted to put it and that's where mkinitrd and insmod
found it.

Prior to that, the highest I had done CMS FS with was 2.4.19.

Thanks to all that responded. I didn't know that you could define multiple address
tripods for the adapter in the IOCP. I'll give it a shot.
Thanks again!
