uhm, i'm having a look at it, but doesn't seem very portable:
cache.c:#include <hurd/fsys.h>
cache.c:#include <hurd/io.h>
cache.c:#include <hurd/auth.h>
ops.c:#include <hurd/io.h>
ops.c:#include <hurd/fs.h>
ops.c:#include <hurd/paths.h>
nfsd.h:#include <hurd/fs.h>
the "User-Space NFS Server" (UNFSD) is suposed to be portable. it
has been used on other Unices like BSD, SunOS, HP-UX and AIX, and more
mature (it's been originaly based on the sunrpc3.9 package), so if the
license problem can be worked out i'd want to use that. otherwise it
probably is still better to get rid of the ~900 lines of badly licensed code.
on the licenses, does the following sound GPL-compatible to you?:
"These programs may be freely distributed provided they retain my
copyright notices. They are provided as is, with no warranty
expressed or implied."
"This software may be used for any purpose provided
the above copyright notice is retained. It is
supplied as is, with no warranties expressed or
implied."
