I did look at it before i posted, and I figured out the hard way a few times what the .p.h is. =) but I just refer to it as auth.h... :) > Secondly, I don't believe this *particular* structure is exported on > the wire.

AND THIS is -exactly- where my problem is coming from. =) I was running into time_t, int, and uint's for time values in bucoord and it was screwing me up. =) I ended up fixing some warnings, and created more.. if I wouldnt have created more. I just would have left them for later. :) However... I assume you mean expires in struct budb_tapeEntry from budb/budb.h afs_uint32 expires; This isn't going to solve my problem unless I convert them all to uint's or ints or there is another struct with expires in it that I missed. -------------------------------------- Sean O'Malley, Information Technologist Michigan State University ------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
