- Hello all,
-
- I have compiled pcnfsd without major problems. You will need
- the RPC - library port by Rick Sladkey (jrs@world.std.com).
- It is available as sunrpc-bin-4.0.tar.Z on many linux sites
- in the ALPHA/NFS directory. Your kernel must have NFS - support
- compiled in. I use the sources from SLS (0.98p5) with all patches
- from the package lxpatchs.taz on disk b4 applied.
- The changes to pcnfsd.c consist of checking some file and directory
- names, supplying a mode in some
- mkdir calls, declaring the crypt() function and changing the
- type of free_list() to void.
- To install pcnfsd on your system add it to your rc.net script
- after the other NFS stuff. Remember to add your pc to /etc/exports
- so that it is allowed to do mounts.
- Since it has only been a short time that I've been using this,
- I can't tell how stable it is. I couldn't get printing via NFS
- to work yet (the jobs get queued but are truncated to length zero).
- I'll post some more on this if there is interest.
-
- Hope this helps,
-
