Hi,

It seems that my last few messages were not delivered. Let me try it
again. Also I updated the status.

Thanks.

I am happy to announce that the Linux NFS CVS server is online now.
Anyone has the read access. Please set the environment variable,
CVS_RSH, to ssh and do

# cvs -z 9 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxnfs.sourceforge.org:/cvsroot/nfs login

without password and then

# cvs -z 9 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxnfs.sourceforge.org:/cvsroot/nfs co ...

There will be modules for nfs development.

1. linux-2.2: The patched NFS kernel for Linux 2.2.
2. linux-2.3: The patched NFS kernel for Linux 2.3.
3. nfs-utils: The nfs related utilities.

As of today, there are only linux-2.2 and linux-2.3. But only the 2.2
tree is patched. The current 2.2 tree has the patches in knfsd 1.4.7
and the NFS V3 client patch, linux-2.2.12-nfsv3-0.14.6.dif.bz2, from
Trond Myklebust. There are many things to be done:

1. Get the NFS V3 server working on the 2.2 tree.
2. Bring the 2.3 tree up to date with 2.2.
3. Create the nfs-utils tree.

To finish those  We will need all the help we can get. To help out the
Linux NFS project, please go to

http://www.linuxnfs.sourceforge.org

and login as "beta" with password "beta4u". You register yourself.
please send an email to nfs-admin@linuxnfs.sourceforge.org with

1. Your user id on www.linuxnfs.sourceforge.org.
2. The area in NFS you'd like to work on.

You will be notified when it is done.

Thanks.


H.J.
