Ok, got it. This annoing thread (sorry) was due to the fact that the only messages that actually contains the / marker are Tauth and Tattach (in the aname). I still think that using wstat with such marker to atomically move files among accessible folders would not violate the protocol

the control file idea is a neat way of doing atomic moves. this has been discussed before, my summary is its not something you need often to justify the pain of trying to implement it correctly - the directory locking has to be done with care to ensure it is all deadlock free. I do, very

I do wonder if they have got it wrong with the Pi-2 and should have gone with Gig Ether - Time will tell. They did not, one of the most common usages of the pi is to decode h.264 video, which works just fine over the slow ethernet and even via usb wireless adapters. Fine means the videos break

kirkwood had gigabit ethernet way before the rpi even existed and I'm regularly using multiples of 100Mbit with samba on one, it's super stable *and* faster which is why I would never pick the rpi for a NAS. otoh this device doesn't even have video out. What kirkwood device are you using for
