Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for 20991da177e4SLinus Torvalds disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server 21001da177e4SLinus Torvalds replication, security model for authentication and encryption, 21011da177e4SLinus Torvalds persistent client caches and write back caching. 21021da177e4SLinus Torvalds 21031da177e4SLinus Torvalds If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda 21041da177e4SLinus Torvalds *client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the 21051da177e4SLinus Torvalds client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need 21061da177e4SLinus Torvalds no kernel support.
