Hiya

Im trying to get GFS working on Debian Lenny. Unfortuantely 
documentation seems to be non existent. And the one site that google 
recommends, gcharriere.com, is down.

I used googles caching mechanism to try and make head and tails of whats 
needed to be done, but unfortunately Im unsuccessful.

Would anyone have any documentation or any sites or if you have a heart, 
provide a howto to get GFS working.

 From myside, all ive done is:

aptitude install gfs2-tools
modprobe gfs2
gfs_mkfs -p lock_dlm -t lolcats:drbdtest /dev/drbd0 -j 2

thats all, ive done. No editting of configs etc.

When I try,

mount -t gfs2 /dev/drbd0 /drbd/

I get the following message:

/sbin/mount.gfs2: can't connect to gfs_controld: Connection refused
/sbin/mount.gfs2: gfs_controld not running
/sbin/mount.gfs2: error mounting lockproto lock_dlm

If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

Kind Regards
Brent Clark
