Hi,
I don't think NFS has the possibility to push notifications about changes in
the filesystem to the clients. NFSv3 is stateless so the server does not even
know about the clients. NFSv4 I don't know much about, but I have never heard
of notifications.
So for NFS kqueue would only trigger if the change is on the same client as
where the kqueue is lurking.
Otherwise you could run some daemon on the server which pushes the notifications out of band
of the NFS protocol to the clients. Which probably gives interesting results together with the
caching of the NFS client. But that is another story we see at work. (postfix -> you have
mail! -> NFS -> imap -> no you don't -> O yes, you have. :-) )
Regards,
Ronald.

Onderwerp: kqueue and NFS
Hi,
I have a vague recollection that kqueue does not work for NFS files,
any chance that this will be made possible?
cheers,
danny
