I have a ISO9660 format cd-rom that I would like to keep mounted and nfs export to other machines. Question 1: how do I mount it at boot time so that it stays mounted? Currently, I can mount it at boot time as long as I load the CDROM filesystem first (kl_util -l CDROM), but when I log in the workspace manager insists on ejecting it. I have tried putting the mount entry in both the netinfo mounts directory and in /etc/fstab, with appropriate commands in the /etc/rc* files to mount it either way. For a 4.3 filesystem, putting it in /etc/fstab instead of the netinfo mounts directory seems to be enough to keep it permantly mounted (it worked with the NeXTSTEP 3.0 upgrade disk). For ISO9660 (cfs) filesystems this doesn't seem to make a difference. Question 2: When I nfs mount the disk onto our Sequent, ls -F of a large directory (from the Sequent) results in each file (actually subdirectory, if that makes a difference) being listed twice, beginning with the 100th file. Has anyone else encountered this apparent nfs bug? This also happens with ls -l, but not with a plain ls, so the problem seems to be confined to ls options that require a stat(2) system call. In case all this isn't clear, what I see when I do an ls -F from the sequent of the nfs-mounted cd-rom is: subdir001/ subdir002/ subdir003/ subdir004/ . . subdir098/ subdir099/ subdir100/ subdir100/ subdir101/ subdir101/ subdir102/ . . Listing the same directory on the NeXT doesn't give this wierd duplication. Thanks for your help. -stuart -- Stuart Pearlman stuart@oasys.dt.navy.mil Trandes Corporation +1 301 459 0200 On-Contract-To: David Taylor Research Center +1 301 227 1428
