here are two choices I can point to frm my own stuff. First, go to larry mcvoy's web page and look for the paper on bigfoot. I have this code. I have almost convinced myself that it is copyright clean at this point. If you are interested I can make that last effort. It supports a service that prrovides a union of a set of remote nfs servers. Tested on up to 32 remote machines. Fast as it uses vector rpc. I have an incompatible-with-plan9 version of the plan9 file system working on freebsd and linux in user mode, and in linux vfs in kernel mode for the client.. Guess what -- this supports union mounts. You could build a union of all those random 9G disks. I could sure use a good freebsd vfs person to help me get the freebsd client going. This is all GPL'ed. ron Ron Minnich |Java: an operating-system-independent, rminnich@sarnoff.com |architecture-independent programming language (609)-734-3120 |for Windows/95 and Windows/NT on the Pentium ftp://ftp.sarnoff.com/pub/mnfs/www/docs/cluster.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
