"Explicit typing" is when a type field is included in the data stream.  XDR
uses implicit typing, which means that the data stream does *not* include any
type information.  Instead, both sides (the reader and writer, or the client
and server) know in advance the type of data that's to be interpreted.  ANS.1
uses explicit typing.

The example at the end is encoded in XDR, therefore it uses implicit typing.
You interpret is by looking at the XDR description immediately preceding the
example, and by knowing how things like enums and strings are encoded in XDR.

Explicit typing can be useful, for example when you intend to store data that
is read later by some other application.  A package called "netcdf" was
developed at UCAR which stores data in a "self-describing" format.  Check the
anonymous FTP directory pub/netcdf at unidata.ucar.edu.

Similar situation here: PCNFS 4.0a, Windows 3.1, WinWord 2.0a,
with a Deskjet on LPT1 that prints fine from DOS but fails
from WinWord (and Write). Even though it works fine from DOS
with NFS loaded (so it's not purely NFS' problem), this
same configuration worked just fine until I upgraded from
PCNFS 3.5 to 4.0a. What's up? Any clues, Geoff?

People who prudently turn on UDP checksums will not (I hope) see data
corruption, but if whatever is corrupting data is present, they
will see NFS retransmissions.  Also, reasonable UNIX systems count
UDP checksum.  `netstat -s | grep sum` can be entertaining.

	Some vendors sell operating systems that have UDP checksumming
turned off, so they can benchmark a little bit faster. Others sell
versions of NFS that do asynchronous writes. Some of them will tell
you of the risks, and others won't.
	"The network is the computer" - I.e.: you better trust the
network 'cuz your operating system for damn sure isn't looking out

	I believe that never versions of some of these vendor's
UNIX have UDP checksumming turned on by default. It's about time,
but I'll be kind of disappointed, since it's always nice in a
competitive situation to be able to copy and sum files over a
noisy network, or to do a mess of writes and then power their
server down, and let their sales reps explain to the customer
what happened to their benchmark data...   :)
	Digital's ULTRIX runs with UDP checksumming on *ALWAYS*
and with synchronous NFS *always*.

	Correct me if I am wrong, but this was my assessment of the situation:
SunOS 4.1.2 is BSD, but has many Sys V'isms available.  The pcnfsd source
for version 2 relies on a few of these Sys V'isms.  As a result, it will not
compile on BSD machines such as Ultrix, without some changes.

Marcus Ranum (mjr@decuac.DEC.COM) provided the source for a pcnfsd v2 with 
the changes for Ultrix.  I do not know if this will work on other systems.

I don't understand your problem. We use PC-NFS 4.0 with german keyboards
and have absolutely no problems. Keyboard layout inside telnet is
determined by the keyboard driver of MS-DOS, which supports a variety
of national versions. This should work with norwegian keyboards too.

Really?

Doesn't Digital offer something you call "NVRAM" which is used with
software similar that used with to Legato's PrestoServ?  Doesn't ULTRIX
while using that "NVRAM" reply to the NFS client before the data is on
the disk?  Using the reasoning that the "NVRAM" is "stable storage",
and so you can call the early reply not really asynchronous?

I have been wondering how much that DEC "NVRAM" costs.  Is it standard
in all systems?

When all else is equal, an NFS server with more stable storage is more
reliable.  However, all else is rarely equal.  For example, Ultrix is
reputed to had much more serious bugs in its NFS server implementation
than any NVRAM or synchronous writes might affect.  Actually, "reputed"
is too weak.  I've seen enough interoperability complaints from SGI
customers.  I have no doubt DEC will fix those bugs soon, but the point
remains.

It is at best disingenuous to confound UDP checksums which protect
against failures on the client, the server, and the network relays,
gateways, bridges, and cables in between, with sychronous server writes
which protect only against server failures.  Both may be desirable by
customers, but equating them is wrong.


Vernon Schryver,  vjs@sgi.com


P.S.  Silicon Graphics NFS servers can run with either synchronous or
asynchronous writes.  The default is async, because things generally
run about twice as fast.  A possibly inaccurate survey at the last
Connectathon showed that practically all NFS server vendors offer some
kind of async. write, although some are offering it only with extra
cost hardware that includes "solid state stable storage."

P.P.S.  The performance gain from turning off UDP checksums for NFS is
trivial, generally unmeasurable, and not worthwhile on modern systems.
It is only at the high end of raw UDP/FDDI rates that I've noticed the
effects of the UDP checksum.

I have just pushed a new revision of the pcnfsd v2 sources to
the archive sites:

	src.doc.ic.ac.uk
	ftpserver.massey.ac.nz
	bcm.tmc.edu

The new file is pcnfsd.92.08.21.tar.Z.

The main changes from the last rev (dated April 27, 1992) are aimed at
making it much easier to port to different systems with different
printer architectures. Please read the file "common.h" for details,
in conjunction with "pcnfsd_print.c". I have also added support
for SVR4-style password aging. As a side-effect of this, I have
begun to use the "comment" field in the reply to certain RPC's.
I don't know of any client which will make use of this immediately,
but client implementors should begin to think about doing so.
[In essence, if the ".cm" field is non-null and does *not* contain
the string "No comment", you should probably display the text in some
form.] There are other minor fixes throughout.

This version should be regarded as "work in progress" at this stage.
Several vendors are working with interim versions of this source
base in developing ports for popular platforms, and I hope to be able
to post another release sometime between now and InterOp which will
include their modifications. As always, feedback, bugreports (preferably
with fixes!) and enhancements are always welcomed.

I don't think this is a PC-NFS problem. We had the same problem with
PC-NFS 3.5, WINDOWS 3.1 and WinWord 2.0. We then took out WinWord 2.0a
and it worked well. It seemed to be a font problem, at least the 
garbage characters. Microsoft gives free updates to WinWord 2.0a
(at least in germany :-)), so maybe try this first.

Hope this helps,

The interesting thing is, that the vendor(s) who run with UDP checksum off
don't tell you that, but the vendors who offer asynchronous NFS are telling you
what you are doing. And the hazzles with UDP checksumming off are really
big compared with the mostly nonexistant hazzles of asynchronous NFS.

>	Digital's ULTRIX runs with UDP checksumming on *ALWAYS*

I agree that UDP checksumming should be always on, but asynchronous NFS
should really be a option, as you win really much performance.
Putting your server onto a UPS is always a better solution!

I have a problem with NFS and NIS data corruption across my network.  Some
of the "blame" seems to be in my cisco routers - HOWEVER - I'm not willing to
point any fingers yet.  I want to get more data.  Since the problem could
be in a lot of different places and I have a couple of vendors who don't want
to take 'credit' for the problem, I'm soliciting suggestions on the best way to build an 'iron clad' demonstration of the problem.

I have a short script file that uses 'sum' which forces large files to be moved across the network to be summed.  I know what the sum 'should' be and when it's corrupted I get an error message.  This tells me the error occured but not why.  Any suggestions?

I've also looked at lan traffic and I've discovered the UDP checksum is off for NFS packets.  Unfortunately the net isn't reliable enough to handle that.  We are getting the AIX change that will turn the checksums on.  Any other ideas on this point?

Finally, can someone point to some literature that will show me what a NFS/NIS packet is suppose to look like?  Also some books on NFS might be helpful.

When i do the pcnfs v4 install on my ps2 running dos, i use the
following command:

	install -f c:\nfs -w c:\windows

	Invalid Windows directory specified
	Exiting installation.

C:\nfs is where pcnfs3.5 was.
And c:\windows is where windows is.
Windows appears to be working.
It appears that there are lots of windows type files in that
directory.

Since i've not seen any traffic in this group about this problem,
i assume i'm the bozo here, not the installation program, but
	What Am I Doing Wrong?

Subject: Which NFS should I buy for a PC?

Hello,
    I am going to have a 486 running OS/2 and acting as an NSF server for
 several other PC's running DOS. For the OS/2 server I have ordered IBM's
 TCP/IP and NFS. What NSF software do I need for the client PC's and which
 brand should I buy?    Thanks for any help.
