Hi All,
 
I need to develop a (network-)distributed file system, for Linux. How do I go about 
doing that?
 
I know I need to write:
1. kernel code (preferably as a module) to register as a VFS provider (is wording 
accurate?)
2. user-space daemons (much like NFS) to handle all that which doesn't have to take 
place inside the kernel.
 
I also know that there's a raw-device-over-network (see NBD) approach and a 
file-system-over-network (see samba) approach. Which do you believe is better suited 
for a general purpose distributed file system?
 
Thanks,
anonly.
