Does anyone know of a site that has hacked the NCSA Mosaic (client)
to be AFS aware. That is, to take a URL and if it's a local host
with AFS then prepend to the URL the "file://localhost/afs..." path to
the document.
It appears to be part of the spec for the software... found a reference
in the "docs":
*
* http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Addressing/FileAddressing.html
*
* "Typicall, the browser will check to see whether the node is the local node,
* or a node for which files are available mounted in some form of distributed
* file system."
*
But the NCSA people are on a different grind stone now and I don't
think intrested in working out this minor detail. Rob McCool (NCSA)
said:
"Try looking around line 314 of libwww2/HTFile.c in Mosaic/X 2.2. I think
this will be what you want."
I'd try - but I don't have Motif compile time libs... :( SunOS )
