Hi Moritz, Thankx for your suggestion. Trivfs is really cool. I thought that trivfs should be used to write some sort of file system translator, however, i was wrong. I came to know that it is also used to register into the Hurd nameserver, which is being handled by the filesystem itself. Ex: your simple password server and pfinet server.
However, i want to know why my non-trivfs code was not working and where i was doing wrong? Cheers, V. Varadhan. P.S:- I am attaching the working code with this mail. > Hello, > > I didn't have a close look at your code, I just want to point out the > following: it is probably easier (and more elegant) to use libtrivfs in > your server.
