CODA is like AFS and supported by FBSD since R2.2.5. In R6.1 there is a kernel module. Maybe it is worth a try, although I have not found a man page for coda... There seem to be two versions (coda.ko and coda5.ko)... And I found ports/net/coda*... In a ReadMe file I found a note, that the coda kernel module is not SMP-ready... Or Eric's NFS idea where read access is via NFS and where write access is via an own mechanism (e. g. each client remembers its update requests until all storage nodes committed those updates - each client should remember succeeded commits then, too...). :-)) -Arne __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
