The interfaces we need to use to enable that functionality are no longer available to us as of kernel 2.6.29 (according to Marc :). If you want to try to build it on a kernel before then, you can edit src/config/param.linux26.h, remove the lines that define AFS_NONFSTRANS, and try to build it again. It may or may not work. (If you really want the kernel xlator to work, you can also try older OpenAFS client versions if that doesn't work.) Your other options are to use the translator on a commercial unix instead (it's known to work on Solaris), or try a userspace NFS server, as Christof mentioned. We would like to sometime get a userspace NFS translator that has the afs-specific bits, but nobody seems to want it enough for that to actually happen. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
