Coda is a distributed filesystem. It is derived from AFS, but
|
|
supports disconnected operation, both reading and writing. This
|
|
directory contains the interface between the VFS layer and a
|
|
user-space program ("venus") that implements the client part of Coda.
|
|
The interface is similar to puffs(9) in many respects.
|
|
|
|
Coda servers do not need kernel support.
|
|
|
|
For information on Coda, see

As of April 2007, Coda is not quite stable enough for demanding
|
|
production use, but is usable by those who are willing to deal with
|
|
problems. Help can be obtained via the list codalist@coda.cs.cmu.edu.
|
|
|
|
As of April 2007, pkgsrc/net/coda\* is old, and gdt recommends running
|
|
code from Coda's CVS.
|
|
|
|
As of April 2007, the kernel code has not been tested on 64-bit
|
|
architectures. It runs on i386 and has previously been tested on
|
|
sparc.
