Thanks Eli.
I was trying to build the server on Ubuntu and couldn't find much help.
Yes. I agree that not much work is needed for client since the client
module is already incorporated as part of the kernel.
Shifted to CentOS now due to time constraints for my project. If James
could provide the details on how to do that, I would be glad to test during
my spare time and post the details/results to the community.
Regards,
Akhilesh.

Sorry to hear :(
For clients you don't need anything special, the stock kernel should
suffice (though you may want a newer kernel for bugfixes etc).
For the servers I can't tell you (yet), but it seemed from James' post
that he built that successfully...

Eli
PS: this is the ./configure we use to build our clients:
./configure --disable-modules --disable-server --enable-client
--prefix=/usr/local/lustre/[version]
