Since fam was introduced, it does not work. And I compiled in the fam-support! I made several tests and looked in the console output what errors came up, I corrected the source of error but nothing helped. One error was, that a folder called "Template" is missing. I created it, it doesn't help. I also try to start it with a startup-script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. Suddenly it worked for only one user. After an other user has logged in, fam doesn't work again. So I gave up using fam. I followed the instructions I found with google. No success. I posted this problem in several newsgroups and boards. I didn't get any answer. Now I'm using "Ctrl+R" in Nautilus to see the new files. Not very user-friendly. If someone can tell what communication-parameters nautilus and fam are using, then I will write my own "fam" that will not need inetd. Best regards.
