Hi. I currently locked over the network-file-system possibilities I have under Linux. (I have too many NFS problems here ...) We wounld use the NFS replacement to serve our development sources and home directories ... As alternative I find CODA quite promissing. But I found problems reading through the docu. The introduction about coda says: ..., Venus fetches the entire file from the servers, ... Err? I have some multi-track wave files (> 2 GB of course), RockLinux tars (< 1GB) and ISOs (600MB) lying around ... . So Code will not be able to serve this files? Also when I create a 4GB cache it would be extremly slow to copy the whole file over a 100MBit ethernet when a appication calls open (). Coda is not able to serve the data on-the-fly (for such files only ...) ?? In one docu I found that the cache shouldn't be larger than ~300MB. Is this the latest info? Especially for the larger files (mentioned above) and hording on my laptop this would not be that cool ... -- eMail: rene.rene_at_gmx.net rene.rebe_at_rocklinux.org Homepage: http://www.rene.rebe.myokay.net/ Anyone sending unwanted advertising e-mail to this address will be charged $25 for network traffic and computing time.
