I'm not sure if we get the same problem. For me, I happen to make
it work with the following configuration:
1. kth-krb4 (19981214 snapshot version), because it provides
afssys.c version 1.62.
2. arla 0.20
3. Solaris 7 running in 32-bit kernel.
With the above configuration, arla can access the AFS volume (while
the AFS server is driven by a Transarc package) without problems.
However, I fail to make it work when the OS is running in 64-bit.
Specially, a 64-bit OS refuses to modload a 32-bit kernel driver.
So, I grabbed a copy of Sun Workshop 5.0 Early Access to compile
a 64-bit version of arla and krb. However, it screws up when
compiling "process.S". Even though I supplied "-xarch=sparcv9"
for the assembler to generate a 64-bit object file, it still
gave compilation problem. Specially, it is:
ld: fatal: relocation error: R_SPARC_HI22: file process.o:
symbol PRE_Block: value 0x400414 does not fit
ld: fatal: relocation error: R_SPARC_HI22: file process.o:
symbol PRE_Block: value 0x400414 does not fit
Unluckily, I am not good at Sparc Assembly stuff and so I
have no ideas about the magic value on 0x400414. Helps
are appreciated as I really want to see arla working on
64-bit Solaris 7. :-) Thanks in advance.
