Re: Heimdal Key Table Entry Not Found

zone transfers. I was reverse resolving the new g3 host as the old g2 host as a result. It was the situation you cited. I checked and double checked DNS resolution forward and backward and everything was perfect... on that one host. Grrr! Thanks, Jason C. Wells

Re: OpenAFS for FreeBSD...

functionalities I need. Arla was marked as BROKEN when I last tried to build it under 6X. IIRC, it was marked as broken for 5.4 too. Is there some special secret you could share with us to get an AFS client? I'd love to hear it. Thanks, Jason C. Wells

Re: OpenAFS for FreeBSD...

2005-10-22 Thread Jason C. Wells
rumor I heard was that the server works. The client doesn't work out of the box. I did have the client sort of working once upon a time. That is to say that it was working right up until it panicked. OSX is a different kernel. The kernel is where the difficulty lies. Later, Jason C. Wells

You can easily use count rules in ipfw for this. I did this back when I had a roommate who was a pornmeister. The first month that our DSL bill came in at plus $30, I started counting. He was using about 85% of our bandwidth. Later, Jason C. Wells
