...out knowing internal details of the filesystem in question, so we need to encode specific knowledge of btrfs in mountd. This is unfortunate. To ensure smooth handling of this and possible future changes in uuid generation, we add infrastructure for multiple different uuids to be recognised on old filehandles, but only the preferred on is used on new filehandles. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb-l3A5Bk7waGM@public.gmane.org> -- This is a substantially revised version of a patch I posted a while ago. I tried to find a way to do it would hard coding knowledge of btrfs in nfs-utils, but it isn'&...

Hello, I am upgrading to the current R 2.5.1 under Sun Solaris 8. I call the configure script with the --without-readline flag, and it works fine. Then, when I invoke make, I get this kind of error messages: make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/R/R-2.5.1-inst/src/library' >>> Building/Updating help pages for package 'base' Formats: text html latex example

Hi, We're using dovecot to provide pop3 for a number of mailboxes. The setup is pretty simple: Each user / domain has a mailstore in /data/mailstore/<domain>/<user>/Maildir (backed by NFS). Passwords are in simple passwd-file format in the top level domain directory eg: # cat /data/mailstore/foo.com/.passwd user:{plain}password The passdb setup looks like this. passdb {

Does anything about my dovecot config provide any clues as to what I might have done wrong? The NFS mounts are completely stable every...

...onitor_fdpass.h at 1.4 and monitor_fdpass.c at 1.13. The problem I've hit is that in the cleanup-code for a failed mm_receive_fd() in the client_process_control() function, the client_fd filehandle is left open and lost. The effect is that the slave ssh process blocks and never returns even if filehandles are freed due to other slave processes closing. I've attached a patch that I think fixes this problem. I've also created a simple regression, but I'm not exactly sure how well it will work in other locations. But to manually test issue: in one window/session: ( ulimit -Sn 11 ; exec...

Hello, I was wondering whether the CopyHandler plugin works with hidden files like .htaccess? I have an .htaccess under src/ and another one under src/code/, but they won''t be copied to output/. My config.yaml is: File/CopyHandler: paths: [''**/*.css'', ''**/*.js'', ''**/*.jpg'', ''**/*.png'',

Puppet is failing to restart lighttpd using the Debian init script. Both the default action of stop/start and using the reload action, which basically does the same thing, fail. It seems to be a filehandle problem. Changing the execute method in service.rb to redirect stdout to /dev/null allows the daemon to restart. Otherwise, I end up with a zombie process and according to strace, ruby

NFS needs a unique identifier for a filesystem to be able to export it. This can be set by the admin (fsid= in /etc/exports) but that is a hassle and it is best to set it automatically. nfs-utils currently uses the UUID returned by libblkid if that works, or the fsid returned by statfs64 if libblkid finds nothings and fsid is non-zero. Otherwise it uses device major/minor. This

Greetings, Quick Summary: How does R function non-interactively? I can't print graphics to an X11 window. I set up what appears to be called a "noninteractive" R session using the Perl code at the end of this message. Everthing seems to work fine as written. I get a nice postscript file with my graphics. However, I would like to display X11 R-graphics for the Perl-script

Hi all, I can't believe that I can't find the answer to this one. I have a perl script which is called by xinetd. I want that perl script to be able to detect the remote IP address of the caller. I presumed that it would be an environment variable but I could be wrong. I've found reference to the ENV and PASSENV arguments for xinetd.conf but no examples, and no indication of what

Hi, I have an NFS storage system and want to run jpegoptim on several GB's of jpeg images and I'm wondering what the best approach is. Is it ok to run this operation on the Server itself while the clients have it mounted or will this lead to problems like e.g. the dreaded "stale filehandle"? Regards, Dennis

There are some way to have a log for each module? If there aren't, it should be a a great functionality for maintaining the server. Thanks for the help and continue with this great application !

I''m trying to install the tomcat5.5 package under Debian Etch. The problem is that the init.d script for tomcat5.5 uses "su .... &" to run some things (I think logging processes?) This causes puppetd to hang in its run, because the subprocess never returns (due to open filehandles?). Does anybody have any idea what I can do to get around this? The same "hanging" occurs if you manually run the init script from an ssh session, and then log out. Ssh doesn''t die, and you have ~. to get out. Thanks, Jordan

Hi all, I''m preparing win32-service for an 0.5.1 release. I''ve made a couple minor changes and altered the test suite a bit. It passes on my box here, except that about half the time I get this error: 1) Error: test_services(TC_Win32Service): Win32::ServiceError: OpenService() call failed: The handle is invalid. test/tc_service.rb:227:in `services''

Hi, we've successfully configured GlusterFS mirroring across two identical nodes [1]. We're running the file share under a Virtual IP address using UCarp. We have different clients connected using NFS, CIFS and GlusterFS. When we simulate a node failure, by unplugging it, it takes about 5 seconds for the CIFS and GlusterFS clients to refresh the connection and continue operation. The

In the old days NFS Shared Path had a static handle (ie a number), normal based on some number pulled out of the file system/inode. To fix (well work around) a security issue, for about 10+ years now, when a NFS server reboots, it generates a new random handle for the NFS Share. (sever may generate a new random handle per mount request) The NFS Stale Handle happens when the client is still

Since all my Samba AD member servers rely on vfs_acl_xattr to take care of Windows permissions, is there any performance advantage to building samba with a static vfs_acl_xattr module? (./configure --with-static-modules=vfs_acl_xattr) Thank you
