Heh, well I am interested, i'm just not sure how to help figure it out. I'm
really quite a newbie to actually developing for HURD.

My translator which is trivial (creates a virtual file full of 'y's), but
is linked with ORBit, dies with the same error with all the CORBA calls
commented out as without:

nick@fugue:~/local/testtrans$ settrans -ac foo random-dot-org 
nick@fugue:~/local/testtrans$ less foo
foo: (system server) error with unknown subsystem

I made an rpctrace of a cat foo which is at

http://www.grawk.net/~nick/proj/hurd/testtrans/rpctrace-of-random-dot-org-failure

I'm not sure how to interpert it, I'm also not sure how to debug this. How do I see
where its getting to with gdb or whatever?

thanks!

as always,
