BeNFSServer Preview Release 5
=============================

Hi, again,
sorry, I wrecked the last release PR3, this one should
fix problems relating to mount-errors (I accidentially
removed the PCNFS protocol :( )

The following text is the same as for Release 3.
Btw: There is no Preview Release 3, I just wanted those
really HIGH numbers....

Once, again, apologies, but... I uploaded my NFSClient
together with this file, so .... have fun

Hi, folks,

once again a new version of BeNFSServer, yet another preview 
release.
There was great response to my posting of the last release, and
you will find that the new release incorporates some enhacements
and bugfixes related to your reports.

I recently sent those contributing people a mail with an updated
package I did not make available to the public.
This release is GUI-based, but functionally the same as the
mailed one.

Ok, what do we have here:

I cancelled TCP support for the moment, because it did not work
at all for any one of you.
But there is a nice but sparse GUI now, that will benefit of
new features in upcoming versions.

The program now assumes that you do not want those annoying
debug-messages.
to turn them on again just start BeNFSServer with 
the parameter -verbose.

The portmap daemon is incorporated into the main application
No need for the rpcinfo helper also, because the portmapper window
will show you all the information you need.

So far, enjoy

Thanks to
	Stefan Brueck
	Andy Philpotts
	Marco Nelissen
	Robert Morse
	Loren Henry
	
for sending bugreports and feature requests.
I know there are still a couple of shortcomings, but I will try
to fix them as soon as possible. The same is true for
perfomance enhancements.


P.S: Those of you desperately waiting for an NFS client may
	 be please by the fact, that I just started such a thing.
	I will keep you in touch.
