Here's how I'm starting the server:
<adam> dev-linux:~/nbd-2.6 $ dd if=/dev/zero of=64MB.swap bs=1M count=64
64+0 records in
64+0 records out
<adam> dev-linux:~/nbd-2.6 $ ./nbd-server 33221
/home/adam/nbd-2.6/64MB.swap 

Then, on the cube:

cube:~# ls -l /dev/swap
brw-r--r--    1 root     uucp      43,   0 Mar  1 12:04 /dev/swap
cube:~# ./nbd-client 192.168.1.4 33221 /dev/swap
Error: Can not open NBD: No such device or address

If I hit a machine that doesn't exist, as expected, the command hangs.

If I hit a machine that isn't running NBD, as expected, I get
"Connection refused":
cube:~# ./nbd-client 192.168.1.1 33221 /dev/swap
Error: Connect: Connection refused

So clearly I'm hitting something on port 33221 of the appropriate
machine...but it isn't acting right.  

OK, so, u32 and u64 aren't defined, so that the configure check for
nbd.h fails because the types are undefined and therefore the test
compilation for usability of nbd.h fails.

But cliserv.h *does* that.  And other than a comparison between signed
and unsigned I get warned about, compilation and running appear OK.

cube:~# ./nbd-client 192.168.1.13 33221 /dev/swap
Error: Can not open NBD: No such device or address

I get the same thing if I run nbd-server I've apt-gotten for Debian
Sarge.
