Date: Sat, 25 May 1996 21:20:02 -0400 From: "Brian J. McGovern" Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Three quick ones for those of greater knowledge than I: 1.) I remember in 1.1.5.1, there was a parameter in one of the .c or .h files that would control the amount of "available memory" that NFS would use for disk caching. In the near future, I will be putting together a server that will mostly be used for NFS, and was wondering if it was still around, and/or where I could set it? 2.) I'm wondering if there is a source level debugger out there that runs under FreeBSD (similar to Microsoft's Code View). Its possible gdb even does it, but I can't find it in the documentation. If anyone has suggestions, or could tell me how to make gdb do it (tutorial perhaps?), I'd be most greatful. 3.) Lastly... CVS. See #2 :) I've read the documentation, but, like the Nynex commerical, "I don't get it!" (I'm not surprised). Anyhow, again, a tutorial (or even a lengthy email showing me the "proper way" to import source, and make revision levels - I think I have the checkout and check-in parts ok). Thanks. -Brian
