If you are familiar with the ports system, there is a port for net/arla. It might work on freebsd-stable, it does not work on -current. I am trying to pick up some work done by others, and see if I can get a newer version of arla working on freebsd-current (and maybe freebsd-stable too). I am also keenly interested in OpenAFS for freebsd. There is *some* work going on at www.openafs.org for a freebsd port, but it does not have as many people working on it as openafs for some other platforms. I am also going to look into that work, as I get time. Obviously you would only need *one* of openafs or arla! I'm looking at arla because it is closer to working, and then I'll look at openafs because that would be an easier sell to various people here at RPI. (OpenAFS is something of a known quantity here at RPI, while ARLA is not currently used). -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
