The story: We have some old RH7.3 machines that had been running the old
2.4.18_SGI_XFS1.1 from back in the day. Moving these to a new version of
VMware requires upgrading to something more recent, and 2.4.35.3/SMP was
built from the mainline.
The situation:
Seems to work, except ACL support is broken. I'm pretty sure this is due
to the userland libraries and tools being so out of date (machine has
2.0.9-0). Which versions do I need, and where do I get them? CVS?
I assume that all the other utilities (things in xfsprogs like mkfs,
and xfsdump) will need similar updates as well.
The immediate need is to get ACLs working, but it'd be nice if I can patch
up the rest of it one last time until we can rebuild these VMs.
