You may want to try searching the archives at [EMAIL PROTECTED] to avoid duplication of effort.Hey, I'm just curious... afs and coda are the only network filesystems I've seen with a unified namespace (/afs and /coda) as well as dynamic mounting ("-dynroot").
Is there some inherent reason why you couldn't add a feature like this to SMB or NFS? Obviously AFS has plenty of other advantages over them, but I'm wondering if there's some crucial design decision in AFS I'm unaware of that is necessary in order to do this stuff.
I'm toying with the idea of an AFS-to-{SMB,NFS,AppleShare,FTP,SFS} translator as part of my project to implement an extremely minimal afs client/fileserver in Java. The idea is to make it easier to experiment with AFS hacks by trading off performance.
