[Gluster-devel] any chance of glusterfs on freebsd?

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Hi,
 we were able to get glusterfs server ported to BSD systems. glusterfs
client is not yet ported. (I am not yet sure of the fuse support in BSD).

So, you can export the storage of BSD machine, but right now, can't make
them as client machine.

While compiling give '--disable-fuse-client' and '--disable-ibverbs' option
to ./configure.

Regards,
Amar
