This comes up so often I put a link to it on my afs web site (which otherwise has little of use on it):
http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/openafs/ Linus's objection had nothing to do with the patch being afs specific. His objection was to the entire idea of pags: A "user" is by definition what the unix filesystem considers to be the "atom of security". But he seems open to the idea, especially if logins are pagless by default. Read the entire thread. I think if the patch were split in two (it also has an afs multiplexor part), and the pag part was made non-afs specific (really just disconnect it from pioctl), it might have a chance. Trond's office is right across the hall from mine. If someone can come up with a proper patch I might be able to enlist his help. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
