All, Thanks for the testing and the feedback.
New packages are available at http://www.oneparticularharbor.net/cygwin/. Changes: - README files now in /usr/doc - Added some simple usage notes to README files - Added (very) basic "nfs-server-config" script installed in /usr/bin. - Quieted verbose debug status messages that were going to event log ("patching broken dirent d_ino..." && "patching d_ino...") Notes: - /etc/exports lines like the following seem to work fine: /tmp (ro,all_squash,anonuid=501,anongid=546) ...where UID=501/GID=546 map to the Guest account. The default implementation for the server is to map anonymous requests to user "nobody". Question: would using "Guest" by default make more sense for Cygwin? - I've seen some odd permissions behavior on rw exports. I very much recommend keeping mounts ro unless you want to take a look at these problems close up :-/ -Samrobb > -----Original Message----- > From: Robb, Sam > Sent: Friday, December 20, 2002 12:27 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: nfsd and mountd > > > > I also tried it, and successfully mounted various exports to > > a few *nix boxs on lan. > > couldnt get in running via inetd but thats probably me, I > > will send the errors if you want though. > > Please do.
