From a98965730dc5ad9475fcadbb732d5744d02715de Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Watson Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 19:39:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Add two new items: (1) obrien is reporting problems using smbfs to access Win2k shares, and there have been other less specific reports of problems with smbfs. Testing of smbfs in various environments, and fixing of bugs, is much encouraged. (2) NETNCP and newfs appear still not to be reconnected to the build from the original KSE integration work, and do not build. Fixing these is complicated by an apparent lack of Netware installs easily available to developers, meaning that while syntactic fixes might be made, it's difficult to know if they are right. Developers are encouraged to explore these problems and see if we can't work out what's going on: smbfs and nwfs are both very important to the success of FreeBSD 5.0. --- en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml | 23 ++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml index 91d9cb8a72..dea6e44237 100644 --- a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml +++ b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ - + %includes; ]> @@ -202,6 +202,17 @@ awk(1) should be fixed to respect locale + + smbfs may be broken + -- + -- + There are reports that smbfs may not be working with + recent 5.0-CURRENT snapshots.
