Building unfs3 for Windows
==========================

Building unfs3 using MinGW
--------------------------
1. Build and install the oncrpc-ms library (http://oncrpc-ms.sourceforge.net/)

2. Configure unfs3 with:

LIBS="/myprefix/oncrpc-ms/lib/liboncrpc.a -lwsock32" CFLAGS="-I/myprefix/oncrpc-ms/include -DONCRPCDLL" ./configure --host=`gcc -dumpmachine`


Using unfs3 on Windows
======================

Limitations
-----------
* Single-user mode is required. Internally, unfs3 assumes that it is
  running with uid 0. 

* Foreground mode is required. 

* Inode numbers are emulated by hashing file paths. This means that
  there's a small risk that two files ends up with the same inode
  number.


Path syntax
-----------
unfs3 implements a virtual file system. The root "/" directory
contains the drive letters of the drives present on the system. Below
each drive letter, the actual drive contents is found. unfs3 uses
forward slashes instead of backslashes. This applies both to mount
requests and the exports-file. 


Example exports file
--------------------
/a (ro)
/c/windows/temp (rw)


Example invocation
------------------
unfsd.exe -s -d -p -n 4711 -m 4711 -e exports


Example mount command from a Linux host
---------------------------------------
mount -o port=4711,mountport=4711,mountvers=3,nfsvers=3,nolock,tcp mywindowshost:/c/windows/temp /mnt
