(I'm assuming that you mean the Coda server when you write Coda, but then, what is the name of the userland client ?) What I was really intressed to know is how you from a fid get to file on the disk ie: fid (1,2,3) --> Inode-foo (InodeParams = (part = 1, volume = 1, file = 2) ...) --> /vicepa/1/1 Is this right ? And where do you map the acl (which is at directory level ?) for the file. > I hope this clarifies things. Yes. A bit, Thank you. LoveReceived on 1998-02-10 17:50:45
