I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction .During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person who died on november 2000 in a plane crash with his wife,and the fund has been dormant in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund in our custody either from his family or relation before our discovery to this development. Although personally,I keep this information secret within myself and partners to enable the whole plans and idea be profitable and successful. During thatime of execution.The said amount was Us$18.2M,(Eighteen million two hundred thousand United states dollars only.)

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
by john mark 12 Sep '03

12 Sep '03

From;Mr.John M Mark and Family, My Dear, Good day.This very confidential request should come as a surprise to you. But the nature of what is happening to me and my family urged me to contact you for help, and I quite understand that this is not the best way to contact you because of the nature of my request and the attention it requires. I got your contact information from an information directory during my desperate search for someone who can assist me sincerely and confidentially in relocating and managing some family fortunes. My name is Mr.John M Mark, the second son of Mr.Stephen Nddu Mark, of Beitbridge Zimbabwe. At the height of the present political crisis in my country, in which the white farmers were being slained and ripped off their belongings by the supporters of my president, Mr.Robert G. Mugabe, in their devilish efforts to reclaim all the white owned farms in my country. My father and my elder brother were brutally slained to a painful death on the 13th of May, 2002 in their struggle to protect some white farmers who ran to take refuge in our house. My father, during his life on earth was a prominent business man who traded on diamond and gold from some foreign countries. He publicly opposed the crude policies and crime against humanity on the white farmers by Mr.Robert Mugabe and his regime. The president and his followers after winning the last undemocratic elections decided to block and confiscate all accounts and assets of our black indigenes [including my father's assets and accounts] who opposed his policies and rendered support to these white farmers, whose assets and accounts have already been confiscated. I therefore decided to move my mother and younger sister to the Republic of South Africa, where we presently live without anything and without any source of livelihood. During my father's life on earth,he had deposited the sum of Eight Million and Four Hundred Thousand United States Dollars[$8.400.000.00], in a trunk box with a Security Company in Cote D' Voire for a cash and carry Diamond and Gold business with some foreign customers, awaiting instructions to be moved to its destination, which he never concluded before he met his untimely death on that faithful day. In view of this and as the only surviving son of my father, and with the continuous clamp down, killing and confiscation of the assets of perceived opposition members in my country, I humbly, wish to inform you of my intention to use your names and address to lift this Fund out of Africa to Europe before it is dictated out and blocked by the present Mugabe's regime.My mother is presently with the valid document covering this deposit. Now this is what I actually want you to do for me; 1.I want your personal information to be presented to the Security company in Cote D' Voire as the person my family contacted to assist us clear this money when they lift it to Europe. 2.To finally assist us in accommodating this money , and it is my family's desire that we enter into a joint venture agreement with you on how to invest this money in your own country when you claim take possession of it in Europe. Please, I hope you will grant and view this very request with favour and much understanding of my family's situation now, and will be an honest and reliable person to deal with. And also bearing in mind the confidential nature of this my request. I therefore, emphasize that you please keep every bit of it to yourself so as to protect my family's future. Thanking you in anticipation of your urgent response as soon as you read this very request. Best Regards, Mr.John M Mark _________________________________________________________ http://www.latinmail.com. Gratuito, latino y en espa�ol.

Parse error by rpcgen.py
by ml 04 Dec '02

04 Dec '02

Hi, first I like to thank you for this very useful software. I do not want to use pynfs for NFS, but for my own RPC-based stuff. Now, unfortunately, I have a small problem with rpcgen.py from CVS of two days ago: /* int_string.x -*- c -*- */ struct intstruct { int foo; /* OK */ int bar; /* 1st error */ }; program INT_STRING_PROGRAM { version INT_STRING_VERSION { void STRING_ARG(string) = 1; /* 2nd error */ } = 1; } = 0x4f000000; /* Output of rpcgen.py: Input file is int_string.x Writing constants to int_stringconstants.py Writing type classes to int_stringtypes.py Writing packer classes to int_stringpacker.py Syntax error at 'int' (lineno 5) Syntax error at 'string' (lineno 10) */ I haven't used yacc/lex or better bison/flex for some time, and never used PLY. Therefore, I was not able to solve the parsing problem. Maybe someone else has an idea? Many thanks in advance! Cheers!

As you probably know, the v4 protocol has changed several times. Which server are you using? I believe pynfs should be up2date with the latest spec, so probably your server is a bit old. -- Peter Åstrand Telephone: +46-13-21 46 00 Cendio Systems E-mail: peter(a)cendio.se Teknikringen 3 583 30 Linköping

pynfs news
by Peter Åstrand 31 Jul '02

31 Jul '02

Greetings, pynfs users & others. Some unsorted pynfs news: * My thesis report is finished (and has been some time). It's available from http://www.cendio.se/~peter/thesis/. It's also possible to order the report in printed form from Linköping University. * Since my master's thesis work is over, I do not do any pynfs development at work anymore (and haven't done for a while). Hopefully, I can do some development in my leisure time, though. (This is the reason why I'm using the mail adress astrand(a)lysator.liu.se instead of peter(a)cendio.se now). * Two nice people from UMich are helping with pynfs: David Joshua Widmayer and Martin Murray. Among other things, they have contributed a simple NFSv4 server to pynfs. Thanks! * I've enabled ViewCVS access to the pynfs CVS repository. The URL is http://cvs.lysator.liu.se/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/?cvsroot=pynfs. With ViewCVS, you can get a tarball of the latest release by using the URL http://cvs.lysator.liu.se/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/.tar.gz?tarball=1&cvsroot=pyn…. * nfs4st is still not completed, tests of 11 operations is still missing. I've done some work on OpenSuite, but only one test case is implemented yet. * Not really pynfs news, but: The CITIs NFSv4 Linux implementation works (sort of) with User-Mode Linux. Instructions for how to set things up can be found at http://www.lysator.liu.se/~astrand/nfsv4/user-mode-linux/. * I won't attend the Bakeoff in August, but if you are, and are having some problems with pynfs, feel free to send emails to me or this mailing list. Happy hacking, /Peter Åstrand <astrand(a)lysator.liu.se>

Re: NFS4 server tester...

The only reason I can see that this would be a bad > idea is if the server tester writes a log or something into the test tree. > What are your thoughts? Well, in principle test_tree_net could be integrated into nfs4st.py. The important thing is that all errors are detected. If test_tree_net fails to setup the test tree, the results from nfs4st.py won't be valid. Currently, test_tree_net does not have as many error checks as one would wish. My experience from Cthon was also that it takes some tweaking before it's possible to run test_tree_net. As far as I know, NetApp Filers still fails on test_tree_net. So, currently test_tree_net must probably be "supervised", at least for untested servers. If you know that test_tree_net works with the servers you are testing, it is probably safe just to make a script that runs test_tree_net before nfs4st.py. If you find out that it does indeed work with most servers, then maybe it is a good idea to integrate test_tree_net into nfs4st after all. > Along the same lines - if there's nothing important stored in the test > tree after the suites are run, then it probably would also make sense to > clean up and just destroy the tree at the end of a server test, right? Yes, that's ok, as long as you remember to re-create the tree before running nfs4st again. > Finally, you say in your documentation that test_tree.py is obsolete, > and that test_tree_net.py is all that is needed - can we just throw away > test_tree.py, then, to avoid confusion? Probably. There may still be use for test_tree.py: If it's impossible to run test_tree_net.py against some server, and this server supports running Python scripts like test_tree.py locally, then test_tree.py can be used as a substitute for test_tree_net.py. This would make it possible to run nfs4st even though the server is that broken that test_tree_net.py won't succeed. The problem is that test_tree.py is outdated and probably incompatible with nfs4st.py nowadays :-) Actually, I'm not sure. The ultimate solution, I guess, is to define the test tree in some kind of language, which can be used as input file either to a "network test tree creator" (like test_tree_net) or a "local test tree creator" (like test_tree). Or what do you think? >I noticed that it's still > referenced in Makefile.pychecker and setup.py. Let me know. test_tree_net.py should be added to Makefile.pychecker and setup.py. test_tree.py should be removed, eventually. -- Peter Åstrand Telephone: +46-13-21 46 00 Cendio Systems E-mail: peter(a)cendio.se Teknikringen 3 583 30 Linköping Sweden

New way of creating & using test tree
by Peter Åstrand 06 Mar '02

06 Mar '02

I've recently redesigned the way the test tree is created and used. The previous method was: * Run test_tree.py locally, with the exported root as argument. * Run nfs4st, which required the test tree to be located at the toplevel of the servers exported resources. This has two drawbacks: 1) It is not always possible to run the test_tree.py locally on the server. This is the case for NetApp Filers, for example. 2) Requiring the directories doc, src, tmp etc to be located on the toplevel on the server was inflexible. The new method is: * Run the new program test_tree_net.py. It does the same work as test_tree.py, but via NFSv4, over the network. It can optionally take a prefix. A directory tree with different kinds of files will be created under <prefix>/nfs4st/ * Run the nfs4st.py test application with the same prefix as test_tree_net.py. Example: ./test_tree_net.py myserver/testing ./nfs4st.py myserver/testing AccessSuite -- Peter Åstrand Telephone: +46-13-21 46 00 Cendio Systems E-mail: peter(a)cendio.se Teknikringen 3 583 30 Linköping Sweden
