Re: [fuse-devel] Question about threading

[Brian W. <bdw...@in...>]

Just to follow up on myself, I figured out the problem.   The library
configuration has to be called from main() and the login had to be
called in init() (since it starts threads).  I kept lumping them
together...and I was using relative pathnames for some config files
which broke after the daemon() call.


:)  So, nevermind.

However, FUSE is pretty cool, and its made my life a lot easier!
