Hi, So, I have merged in the newest libc changes and fixed some buildworld issues. It still needs some _THREAD_SAFE fixes I guess, cause we build now thread-safe libc per default. But we can do this later ... Go into your CURRENT source tree and execute the shell archive, it will create the necessary directories and remove some files to prevent appling files two times.

The above is correct. NetBSD NFS-over-IPv6 (actually RPC over IPv6) is TI-RPC based, and it was done by NetBSD guys not KAME guys. Sorry, I was not clear. The question about moving towards TI-RPC was directed to freebsd-current. Just out of interest. No critisism intended. no, i did not took it as criticism. i (and feico) just tried to clarify. itojun To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

strong recommendation re: NFS
Guys, I've noticed that some of you have been making noises about cleaning up the NFS macros in current. I strongly recommend that you not do this, at least not unless you want to take on a man month (or two!) worth of work debugging! In fact, I would recommend that the NFS subsystem be left alone as much as possible until -current is far more stable then it is. NFS issues tend to be subtle, and unless you've been staring at the code for a year you are likely to introduce more bugs then you fix. There's a reason why I (Mr 'rewrite everything' Dillon) haven't touched them. Concentrate on making the general network stack (aka TCP) and filesystems SMP aware. Leave NFS alone for now. Please. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
