Thanks for the response. For the NetBSD coda_{client,server}-5.3.5 packages, I've made it so "filcon" only gets installed with the server, and "au" only with the client. <plug> Coda packages for NetBSD-1.4.2 should start to appear concurrently with the NetBSD-1.4.2 release. The release is sheduled to be tagged today, but you know how that goes. ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/net/coda5_client/README.html and ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/net/coda5_server/README.html The trivial kernel mods for the client are only in some of the ports, so clients should work out of the box only for arm32, i386, mac68k, and sparc (but I've no access to an arm32 or sparc machine). Other NetBSD archs (alpha, bebox, pmax, sun3, etc.) could only run servers. </plug>Received on 2000-02-20 03:17:08
