Hi, I want to have secure NFS on my FreeBSD-4-Stable PC, where a secure tunnel is used for the NFS connection. There seems to be only one webpage for this: http://www.math.ualberta.ca/imaging/snfs/ First step is to install sec_rpc-1.54.tar.gz, which already fails for me. I have upgraded perl from ports, to no avail; and I'm awaiting response from the author of this package. The webpage suggests it should work for FreeBSD, but there's no evidence. So I'm wondering if another FreeBSD-4.X user has been successful in having sNFS installed. If yes, then how to compile the sec_rpc package? Thanks, Rob.

You could start by explaining precisely what "to no avail" means, e.g. what errors are you receiving? Kris -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Exactly same file?Yes, those are hardlinks: root@web3# ls -li /usr/bin/perl* 577508 -r-xr-xr-x 3 root wheel 10168 May 12 11:14 /usr/bin/perl 577508 -r-xr-xr-x 3 root wheel 10168 May 12 11:14 /usr/bin/perl5 577508 -r-xr-xr-x 3 root wheel 10168 May 12 11:14 /usr/bin/perl5.00503 Note that inode numbers are the same.> > When I do: > > $ perl -e 'print "@INC\n";' > > I get no output at all.

You can verify which file actually executes your commands: root@web3# which perl /usr/bin/perl root@web3# which perl5 /usr/bin/perl5 Sincerely, Dmitry -- Atlantis ISP, System Administrator e-mail: dmitry@atlantis.dp.ua nic-hdl: LYNX-RIPE
