I've done the build with V 6.0 of the Install Shield.  Trying to use V5.0
required the multi-language pack to work properly.

I'm not sure why you can't find ntmakefile.version.  When I get stuck I do
a
     "nmake -p -n -f ntmakefile install"
This will list all the necessary steps and may help you find out why you
can't find the file.

Subject: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS and Windows

I'm trying to build openAFS for Windows.

I'm using Windows 2000, Visual C++ 5.0.

I followed all the instructions for building in NT (which I believe are the
same as Win2000), but I get an error of "Could not find
F:\OpenAFS\src\config\NTMakefile.version".

Did anyone manage to compile OpenAFS for Windows in Win2000, with
InstallShield (I'm using the one that comes with Visual Studio 97, which is
the
InstallShield 5 Free Edition)?

Thanks for your help.

I have notished this too. I have also tried to compile vfsck under
Solaris-8 and it compiles fine. Is there filesystem changes in Solaris-8
which requires changes in vfsck or why isn't there a vfsck for Solaris-8
?

since solaris is 'community source' now you should be able to build afs
support directly into fsck.  however, i strongly suspect that there is
little difference between the fsck's of solaris7 and solaris8 if you
are NOT using logging filesystems.  fsck needs to know how to deal with
logging filesystems.

however logging doesnt seem to work with 'raw' afs partitions so it doesnt
seem critical to add support for ufs logging to vfsck.  you also wouldnt
need
vfsck though if you used the namei versions of the filesystems and could
benefit from logging ufs filesystems.

The only one I knew of was the same as the one Chas mentions: ufs logging.
(Same for Solaris 7)

Since Chas contributed the Solaris 8 port, and he knows of no other
reason, I will arrange for 1.0.4 to have a vfsck on Solaris 8.

Hartmut Reuter also contributed patches making it possible to build and
use the namei fileserver on Solaris 8 by just defining
#define AFS_NAMEI_ENV     1   /* User space interface to file system */

in src/config/param.sun4x_58.h before building, if you wish to go that
route. Incidentally, I have done no verification with the fileserver
from Solaris 8.
