5	  Coda is an advanced network file system, similar to NFS in that it
6	  enables you to mount file systems of a remote server and access them
7	  with regular Unix commands as if they were sitting on your hard
8	  disk.  Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for
9	  disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server
10	  replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
11	  persistent client caches and write back caching.

13	  If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda
14	  *client*.  You will need user level code as well, both for the
15	  client and server.  Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need
16	  no kernel support.  Please read
17	  <file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.txt> and check out the Coda
18	  home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.

20	  To compile the coda client support as a module, choose M here: the
21	  module will be called coda.
