CFS has been non-functional for a while, and the original maintainer has vanished. Since then I have totally repackaged cfs and updated for libc6 and it is almost ready for upload. I have sent mail to wnpp regarding this. At the moment I am still working to resolve some policy bugs, plus I cant seem to upload to non-us.

I'd like to be able to use a cfs without having to change other parts of the system. It won't compile on slink. (For that matter, I don't think it will compile on hamm or bo, either.) I tried to fix the package, but it seems to refer to members of RPC data structures which have changed names, and some others which I couldn't find at all. I'm not an expert on RPC; I fixed a few things but could not fix them all. You can have the changes I have made, if you want. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3TYD.

Re: cfs???
Thanks Caffeine, There was an rpm with compiled binaries at ftp.replay.com so I got that and used alien to make a deb. I have a bad history with compiling things :-( It's working great now.

I can mount it and I get a line in mount that says:- 'localhost:/null on /crypt type nfs (rw,port=3049,intr,addr=127.0.0.1)' However I can't create any cfs directories. When I try to use the cmkdir command it seems to be running the cpasswd command. They are seperate files but are exactly the same size. If I try to use cmkdir on an already existing normal directory I get 'Can only change passphrase on new format CFS directories' and when I try to use it with a non existant directory I get 'No such file or directory' [snip] The 'cmkdir' that is in the debain CFS package is actually a copy of one of the other CFS binaries that happens to be installed twice by accident, so you don't get a 'cmkdir' at all. This is a bug in the debian CFS package, (bug number 14321) that has been around for about 1.5 years. If you want a working CFS, I recommend compiling your own copy or hassling the maintainer.

I don't think bugging the maintainer would help since it appears that cfs is not maintained upstream. It's also hard to find maintainers for crypto packages.

Re: CFS, help with cmkdir
That's a packaging error in the CFS source. You need to rebuild the package yourself and change EXE cpasswd debian/tmp/usr/bin/cmkdir to EXE cmkdir debian/tmp/usr/bin/cmkdir inside debian/tmp.files If this hasn't been reported as a bug yet on the bugtraq system, you ought to report it. Also it would be good to mention that 1.4.0beta is out. On Sat, 21 Feb 1998, matthew tebbens wrote: Started cfsd I created /null with mode 000 Exported it to localhost.
