Hi Robert, that's a great tip, didn't know that was possible, thanks! Now I just need to get it to compile properly... ;) Cheers, Peter.

I grabbed the git tools via macports, and tried to build the latest version, however it did not finish building either. Furthermore I think having to install xcode and git etc on each workstation that needs to have gluster access is a major pain... again, I would really appreciate the developers building a dmg version to alleviate this problem. As great as gluster seem to be, this excludes any mixed network. > > > > Don't get me wrong, I think gluster looks like a really cool system, and I'd love to be able to install it site-wide...and I also know it's open source, so I know there is a limit on what can be asked for.... but it's just such a shame that the osx implementation is not supported anymore, therefore the whining. > > > > Anyway, I tried to turn on the NFS export for the file system. It seems to be working ok, but I have problem from certain applications, mainly After Effects on OSX. When loading and playing back image sequences I get this "Stale nfs lock"... anyone got this as well? > > > > /mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
